Pembroke Film Masterclass Series, University of Oxford
Supported by The Pembroke Annual Fund
Interview with Nick Broomfield
|
This Masterclass discussed the making of Tales of the Grim Sleeper (2014), HBO's documentary by award winning documentary filmmaker Nick Broomfield and offers attendees the invaluable opportunity to network with one of the most highly regarded documentary filmmakers in the film industry. Film screening will be followed by Q&As with the Director. Tales of the Grim Sleeper investigates into the murders of serial killer Lonnie Franklin Jr. in Los Angeles. Lonnie Franklin Jr was arrested in July 2010 after a 25 year killing spree in which it is thought he could have killed over a 100 victims, potentially making him the most prolific serial killer in history. Significantly his arrest was not the product of painstaking detective work but completely accidental, the result of a computer DNA match that linked him to a possible 20 victims. Franklin now awaits trial. Tales of the Grim Sleeper looks into how it was possible for all this to happen.
