Flo

Flo has spent her life behind a camera, and she has not stopped even after losing her sight to blindness, living with multiple sclerosis, and being diagnosed with lung cancer. Unable to hold a camera any longer, she directs her aides on framing, light, and composition, turning her hands-on craft into a spoken one. The film sits with her as she works this way, showing a woman who refuses to let her body's failures end a decades-long practice. What comes through is less about the technical workaround than about her character: a feisty spirit, a sharp wit, and a dirty sense of humor that keeps the portrait from turning into a tragedy. It is a short, close look at a photographer who has redefined what taking a picture means for her, and at the aides who have become her eyes and hands in the process.
