"A documentary as haunting as the photographs that inspired it."
- Times Colonist (Canada)

True Meaning Of Pictures, The
An audience favorite at Sundance, THE TRUE MEANING OF PICTURES is an introduction to the work of renowned photographer Shelby Lee Adams. Born in Eastern Kentucky, Adams has devoted 30 years of his life to visiting and making portraits of families living in Appalachia, those who have been misrepresented in the media and derogatorily referred to as "hillbillies." A provocative exploration of Appalachian life, THE TRUE MEANING OF PICTURES also delves into the controversy that surrounds Adams' work, with hot debate amongst the critics, and revealing commentary from his friends and subjects. It makes us question the meaning of art itself, and along the way, we get to know both Adams and the extraordinary people who stand in front of his camera.
