A documentary about Joan Didion is in the works! Didion’s nephew, Griffin Dunne, and documentarian Susanne Rostock are setting out to tell her story through accounts from family and friends, colleagues and critics, and passages of Didion’s writing that she will choose and read herself. According to the film’s fundraising page:
Storytelling was a way of enduring the potent rawness Joan experienced through life, and through loss. Now we must be the ones to preserve this. To preserve her legacy.
