TELL THEM WHO YOU ARE

Mark Wexler's cinematic blend of biography and autobiography centers on his relationship with his father, legendary cinematographer and filmmaker Haskell Wexler, whose long and illustrious career is a virtual catalogue of 20th-century classics: Haskell has collaborated on such works as "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?", "American Graffiti" and "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest." The younger Wexler's film features interviews with world-class actors and directors, but the true star of TELL THEM WHO YOU ARE is Haskell himself, a larger-than-life character who challenges his son's choices about camera placement, lighting, and storytelling while announcing with complete conviction that he could have better directed most of the films he's shot. As these two men swap positions on camera and behind it -- sometimes shooting one another simultaneously -- the film explores the specifics of this particular father/son dynamic while revealing more universal truths about how our parents teach us to see the world.
