PJ Raval’s day in the sun
Austin director and cinematographer PJ Raval has a lot to celebrate these days. “Trouble the Water,” the documentary he shot (not directed), won top honors at Sundance in ‘08 and was nominated for this year’s documentary feature Oscar. Now it’s airing on HBO beginning April 23.
HERE’s the HBO schedule for air times.
But even bigger for Raval and Jay Hodges, also of Austin, is that “Trinidad,” the documentary they co-directed and co-produced, just won the documentary jury award at the Cleveland International Film Festival.
“Trinidad,” a moving, up close and personal chronicle of several lives in the so-called sex-change capital of the world, will screen at 7 p.m. Saturday at Rice University, then it’s off to the Independent Film Festival in Boston on April 26.
Read our interview with Raval and Hodges HERE.
