Description
Humanities and Social Sciences Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art Interview with Leonard Knight after the collapse – very good interview with strong tape of audio & video. Leonard’s optimism and good spirits shine through despite this “disaster.” He talks about how caring other people have been and then walks over to his blue tractor, which is adorned with hand-painted words from the Bible – Jesus, Bible, God; Leonard holds up photo. LS of the caved-in mountain; also pans and zooms all have good audio and video. Also, good traveling shots while driving along road on the way to the slabs.
