Directed by Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Laura Poitras, All The Beauty And The Bloodshed is an epic, emotional and interconnected story about internationally renowned artist and activist Nan Goldin, famed for her vital and poignant photographs of artists, hustlers and the LGBTQ subcultures.

Told through her slideshows, intimate interviews, ground-breaking photography and rare footage.
