An integral part the fabric that makes up the documentary community, docu-helmer Rob Moss is two for two with documentaries preeming in Park City. And the 3-time lab advisor might make it 4 for 3 in 2015, if his toxic waste docu and Andrew James’ Street Fighting Man (for which he helped edit) make the cut. He broke out with 2003’s The Same River Twice (a film with a film river rafting experience that could be a speeded up version of the 7 Up-Series) and with fellow Harvard University prof Peter Galison tackled Pre-Edward Snowden era need for the government to protect truth with 2008’s Secrecy. Supported by the LEF Foundation, Containment see Moss and Galison vacation in an area just as threatening as Fukushima.
