Daniel Eisenberg’s films and videos challenge the conventions of non-fiction film representation and production. Over the last three decades, he has forged a unique body of films that have become internationally recognized for expanding the boundaries between traditions of the personal avant- garde film and historical documentary. Daniel Eisenberg presents The Unstable Object and talks about his work in progress.
