My Take
Sophie Fiennes interests me precisely because she resists the spotlight her famous surname could hand her. As a filmmaker she edits, produces and directs, and her collaborations with Slavoj Zizek on The Pervert's Guide to Cinema and Ideology are some of the boldest attempts I know to make abstract thought genuinely cinematic. Her Grace Jones documentary and Over Your Cities Grass Will Grow show the same patient, observational instinct. She is the kind of artist who burrows into her subject rather than performing for the camera, and I find that integrity rare and worth celebrating.
