Finding Vivian Maier, by John Maloof
Only 30 minutes into a 90 minute film, I wish this were a multi season #Netflix show. Everything about this is remarkable and excellent.

TL; DR: a box of photos purchased at an estate leads to the discovery of a genius who was Mary Poppins at work and Diane Arbus at home.

Everything about this story is improbable and everything about the storytelling is excellent. Through a horde of material culture and investigative #journalism Maloof reveals the work of a #photography savant, told by the dozens of people whose lives she touched.
