Heimildarmyndadagskráin er tileinkuð minningu vinar okkar Peter Wintonick sem starfaði sem dagskrárstjóri heimildarmynda hjá RIFF allt þar til hann lést í nóvember síðastliðnum. Þótt hann sé kannski kunnastur fyrir kvikmyndina Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media frá árinu 1992 (sem verður sýnd í minningu Peters), var Peter mikilsvirkur klippari, handritshöfundur, leikstjóri, framleiðandi, kennari, leiðbeinandi, dagskrárstjóri og brennandi áhugamaður um heimildarmyndir í hartnær 40 ár. Áhrifa hans gætir víða í alþjóðlegum heimi heimildarmynda og við hjá RIFF erum óstjórnlega þakklát fyrir framlag hans til hátíðarinnar undanfarin ár. The Documentary section is dedicated to the loving memory of our dear friend Peter Wintonick who served as RIFF’s Documentary Programmer right up until his death last November. Although perhaps best known for his 1992 film Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media (screened especially in Peter’s memory), Peter lived and breathed documentary films: as editor, writer, director, producer, mentor, instructor, programmer and enthusiast. His influence is felt strongly throughout the international community of documentary filmmakers. We are grateful for his contribution to RIFF over the years.
