The Great Experiment is an epic poem in documentary form – a mirror held to an American nati on at war with its own reflection\, asking not who is right\, but whether the experiment itself can survive. Filmed in striking black and white acro ss the US over four consequential years\, from 2017 to 2021\, the film con siders the results of what George Washington once called “our last great experiment” in democracy. \nStephen Maing is an Emmy Award-winning film maker\, cinematographer\, and editor based in New York City. His most rece nt film\, The Great Experiment\, is an ambitious observational chronicle o f one of the most volatile and perplexing eras of American history & ident ity. Maing’s films seek to expand the aesthetic form and limits of longi tudinal nonfiction filmmaking. They are highly observational visual invest igations of societal phenomena\, complex power structures\, and the fascin ating individuals who challenge them. \n(scribe members receive a discount ) \nJoin us !!
