World Screen Video Interview: Brian Lapping

NEW YORK: Considered by many to be one of the greatest documentary filmmakers working in television today, Brian Lapping talks in this video interview about the highlights of his long career and the challenges of making thoughtful, landmark docs today.

Lapping, through his Brook Lapping production company, continues to roll out quality, investigative series about contemporary conflicts. On the heels of the award-winning Iran and the West, Lapping—perhaps best known for the critically acclaimed The Death of Yugoslavia—is now working on a series about Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin.
