Cinematographer Kirsten Johnson looks back at 25 years of remnants from shooting many documentaries, sometimes with her own whispered commentary, from Brooklyn to Bosnia, ground zero and Guantanamo Bay, and puts it together impressionistically in the film “Cameraperson,” a terrific film with several lasting sequences, from anger of a losing boxer, to the difficulty of a birth at a Nairobi facility to the warmth of a family in Bosnia that brings her back.
