Point and Shoot is the Emmy-nominated story of Matthew VanDyke, a controversial 26-year-old who left home in Baltimore and set off on a self-described “crash course in manhood.”

While on a 35,000-mile motorcycle trip through Northern Africa and the Middle East, he struck up an unlikely friendship with a Libyan hippie. When revolution broke out in Libya, VanDyke decided to join his friend in the fight against dictator Muammar Gaddafi.

With a gun in one hand and a camera in the other, VanDyke joined — and documented — the war until he was captured by Gaddafi forces and held for six months in solitary confinement.

Curry tells this harrowing and sometimes humorous story of a young man’s search for political revolution and personal transformation. Winner of the Best Documentary at the Tribeca Film Festival.
