LYNCH
One night only!
 This documentary gives us a rare glimpse into the fascinating mind of the AFI alumnus who created such visionary classics as ERASERHEAD, MULHOLLAND DR., BLUE VELVET, TWIN PEAKS and WILD AT HEART. Compiled from over two years of footage, the film is an intimate portrait of David Lynch's creative process as he completes his latest film, INLAND EMPIRE (which he appeared with at AFI Silver in 2007). The film reveals Lynch not only as one of the most original and compelling directors of contemporary film, but also as an artist who continues to explore and experiment in countless media.

SILVERDOCS Presents
AT THE DEATH HOUSE DOOR
IN PERSON: Directors Steve James and Peter Gilbert, and star Carroll Pickett
 From the team that brought us HOOP DREAMS, this documentary follows the remarkable journey of Carroll Pickett, who served for 15 years as the death house chaplain at the infamous "Walls" prison unit in Huntsville, Texas. During that time he presided over 95 executions, including the very first by lethal injection anywhere in the world. Pickett firmly believes that innocent men were executed, and evidence strongly suggests he was right.
