 Stringer\n\nU.S.\, 2025\n\nThrough unprecedented on-the-ground access\, 
 journalists brought the Vietnam War to the living rooms of a global 
 audience. Public outcry and resistance grew as brutal and bloody images 
 reached the homes of millions. One of the most recognizable images taken 
 during the conflict\, “The Terror of War\,” featured a young\, 
 unclothed girl running following a napalm attack. The photograph would 
 become a turning point for the hearts and minds of the world\, earning 
 photographer Nick Út a Pulitzer Prize. Decades later\, Bao Nguyen’s 
 gripping film documents a possible revelation of the photograph’s 
 long-held secret and the chain reaction that follows. A story of record 
 unravels through forensic tools\, first-hand accounts\, and an emotional\, 
 climactic reunion. Premiering at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival\, The 
 Stringer sparked controversy in the photojournalism world\, raising 
 questions about the editorial power structures that propelled the stature 
 of some photographers over the obscurity of others. Following the 
 screening\, filmmaker Bao Nguyen\, producer Terri Lichstein\, and line 
 producer Jenni Trang Le will discuss the two-year journey of the making of 
 The Stringer.\n\nDCP\, color\, 100 min. Director: Bao Nguyen\, Producers:
