Poets' Resilience Shines in Acclaimed Documentary "Come See Me In The Good Light"

In the world of documentary filmmaking, two significant events have recently unfolded. Just two weeks ago, a Luis Valdez documentary was awarded the prestigious $200,000 Lavine/Ken Burns Prize from the Library of Congress, recognizing cinematic excellence.

Meanwhile, the inaugural LLDNDOCS documentary showcase is set to take place in London from November 21-23. The three-day event will kick off with the screening of Apple TV's "Come See Me In The Good Light," a film that follows poets Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley as they navigate an incurable cancer diagnosis, transforming their experience into a moving celebration of resilience.

The LLDNDOCS lineup also includes other highly anticipated nonfiction works, such as Ben Stiller's "Stiller & Meara: Nothing Is Lost" and Tamara Kotevska's "The Tale Of Silyan." These films, along with a selection of shorts by Palestinian filmmakers, aim to reflect on how memory and time shape our relationships and the lasting impact they leave.
