For 50 years, Italian photographer Paolo Di Paolo’s pictures were hidden away. Even his daughter didn’t know her father had been a photographer. But when she found a box of his photographs one day, she discovered that he had portrayed some of the most important people in the history of creative Italy. There were images of filmmakers and writers like Pasolini, Mastroianni, Anna Magnani, Bernardo Bertolucci and Alberto Moravia. She persuaded her father to show the pictures to the world.

For American photographer and film director Bruce Weber, Di Paolo’s pictures were a revelation. His tribute portrait is a stylish, elegant black-and- white film that turns the clock back to a bygone and romantic cinephile past. Bruce Weber’s award-winning films include six feature length documentaries, among them, the Oscar-nominated Let’s Get Lost, and numerous short films.

Turn Every Page explores the remarkable 50-year relationship between two literary legends, writer Robert Caro and his longtime editor Robert Gottlieb. Now 86, Caro is working to complete the final volume of his masterwork, The Years of Lyndon Johnson; Gottlieb, 91, waits to edit it. With humor and insight, this unique double portrait reveals the work habits, peculiarities and professional joys of these two ferocious intellects at the culmination of a journey that has consumed both their lives and impacted generations of politicians, activists, writers, and readers.

Elizabeth Alice Gottlieb, known as "Lizzie", was born to the editor Robert Gottlieb and the actress Maria Tucci. Lizzie began her career directing theater in New York. Her first feature documentary, Today’s Man, follows her brother Nicky, who is on the autism spectrum.
