The Role of a Lifetime (2003)

The Role of a Lifetime raises questions about the ethical and social responsibilities of the artist and about the relationship between cinematic representation and historical record. Narkevicius's film emphasises the value of doubt and the impossibility of objectivity, while providing an intimate portrait of one of Britain's most distinguished and original filmmakers, Peter Watkins.
