peciai to the Jewish News

American-made docu-
xnentary film that has been
viewed around Israel is
coming to the Detroit Film
Theatre. Love and. Diane, which
tells the story of an impoverished
New York family fighting drug
addiction and HIV, will be shown
Sept. 19-21.
"I think this film has had so
much attention in Israel because
the people there are really seeing
poverty for the first time," says
filmmaker Jennifer Dworkin, who
introduced this as her first work at
the Jerusalem Film Festival. "I also
think that part of being Jewish is
having a concern for social issues."
Dworkin, winner of a $20,000
Truer Than Fiction Award at the
2003 Independent Spirit Awards
as well as international prizes,
came upon the family while doing
volunteer teaching at a homeless
shelter. Her filming began as a
video project with young people
interested in photography before
she learned that cinema funding
was available and launched a larger
venture.
"I wanted to explain life that
might be quite alien to viewers
says Dwor who learne

having children gave meaning to
their lives."
Dworldn's film, made with the
drama of fiction, tells the story of
Diane Hazzard, a former crack
addict, and her daughter, Love
Hinson, who is FIIV-positive. The
two are coping with the birth of
Hinson's son, Donyeah, also HIV-
positive, and the rigors of the
social services system.
Since the movie was made,
Dworkin has become closer to her
subjects. Besides traveling with
them to speaking engagements,
she has kept Donyeah in her
apartment while his mother
received medical treatment.
Dworkin, on her way to a doc-
toral degree in philosophy before
entering the world of cinema, is
working on a new film project, a
series on the essence of great
teaching.
"I have sold the television rights
to Love and Diane," Dworkin says.
"I used festival prize money to buy
computers for everyone in the
Hazzard family."
