When Britney Spears’ father Jamie Spears agreed last week to step down as conservator of the pop star’s estate, it underscored the flexibility required of editors of nonfiction programs for which the story is still unfolding during postproduction.
That was the case for Geoff O’Brien and Pierre Takal, editors of FX on Hulu’s Framing Britney Spears (The New York Times Presents), who knew they might need to reinvent their story at any time. “The conservatorship momentum and hearings had already started,” Takal relates. “We didn’t know exactly how it was going to end, but ...

If you look up the definition of “girl-power” in the dictionary, there will be a picture of this young woman: Aisholpan Nurgaiv- Eagle Huntress.
Sony Pictures Classics latest release, The Eagle Huntress, tells the amazing and powerful story of 13-year old Aisholpan and her family of traditional nomadic Kazakh people of the Altai Mountains, set against the magnificent and awe inspiring beauty of the Mongolian steppe.
For generations, Kazakhs have traditionally used eagles for hunting small game to feed and clothe their families. And part of that tradition is that eagle hunters are always men.

And lucky for her (and us), her father has no problem breaking tradition to help Aisholpan follow her heart.
Directed by Otto Bell, The Eagle Huntress is Bell’s first feature length documentary. Up until this, he...
