Schroeder's film Terror's Advocate had its North American premiere today. The director was unable attend the festival but here is an insightful interview by David D'Arcy. schroeder.jpg

In the interview, D'Arcy decribes that: "Schroeder knows monsters when he sees them. He has made films about Idi Amin and Klaus von Bulow, and the director admits that Verges's clients are even more monstrous. His film is an interview with Verges, who can talk his way into and around any subject, in a French that seems to have been refined in the best schools. Verges is a product of the best education that France could provide, and he has used it against France ever since."

If you are interested in finding more about the filmmaker and his reasons for making this documentary, I certainly recomment this interview. Be reminded as well that we'd love to hear what you think of this film and any other documentaries you're seeing at the festival.
