Alexandre Trudeau – Ideas About Ideas

As a filmmaker and special correspondent for Maclean’s magazine, Alexandre Trudeau has reported from the world’s most troubled, war-torn regions including the former Yugoslavia, Liberia and Iraq. His full-length documentary, Embedded in Baghdad (shot, produced and told by Trudeau himself over a 40-day stay in Baghdad), is an intensely personal snapshot of a middle-class family struggling to make sense of the U.S.-led attack on their country. He joined us on stage at ideacity in 2004.
