"Armed Only with a Camera": Oscar-Nominated Doc Honors Brent Renaud and Other "Fallen Journalists"
We speak with filmmaker Craig Renaud, the director of "Armed Only with a Camera: The Life and Death of Brent Renaud," an HBO documentary about his brother, photojournalist Brent Renaud, who was killed by Russian soldiers in Ukraine in 2022. March 13 marks the fourth anniversary of Brent's death, and the film is both a tribute to him and "a bigger story about all the journalists who were being killed," says Craig. "As we enter another war … I hope Brent's work and the work of all the fallen journalists helps people pause for a minute and think about the impact that these wars will have."
