Overview

Telling a story is an act of generosity, as described by author George Saunders in this short film by Tom Mason and Sarah Klein. An author cannot approach the characters, situation or even the words with preconceptions, Saunders explains, and he demonstrates by elaborating simple sentences. George Saunders: On Story evinces the same creativity as its subject, finding in images and music ways to illustrate what Saunders says.
