Monrovia, Indiana

The latest documentary from Fred Wiseman, America’s greatest documentarian, known for films such as Titticut Follies, National Gallery, and Ex Libris: The New York Public Library. Meet “middle America” in Monrovia, Indiana, a “representative” farming community founded in 1812 with a population of 1400 people. Wiseman probes beyond the stereotypes and presents as real a picture of small town life as big city-ers are likely to get. Played the Venice and Toronto Film Festivals.
