Fascinating & Moving Story

This is a fascinating and moving documentary. It is both personal and historically significant, full of twists and turns, and takes you on a ride that is beautiful, unexpected, tragic, and nostalgic. It is fortunate this story has been told before being lost to the passage of time. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Fascinating and beautiful

This documentary is a beautiful portrayal of the creator of the Bolex movie camera, interspersed with movie clips taken with the iconic camera, which has played a significant role in the development of film. The director has a personal connection to the story, which makes it all the more poignant.

The man who invented the Bolex

This is the fantastic and heartbreaking initiatic journey of a young director who discovers that her great grandfather was actually the man who invented the Bolex. It's a lovely and emotionally powerful dive into the roots of the creator of the Bolex cameras. Being myself in the audiovisual industry for 34 years now, I have a slight idea on how long the production process can take and the kind of difficulties to overcome. All my sincere and respectful congratulations for the great achievement with this doc. In Alyssa Bolsey's particular case, this surely has been an epic scouting and focus on her family history in the steps of her visionary great grandfather Jacques Bogopolsky.
