Estonian Photographer's Cannes Life Gets the Doc Treatment

There's always that one person who seems to be everywhere—the one behind the camera catching all the moments that matter. Erlend Staub is that guy for the festival circuit.

Director Kullar Vilmne just made a documentary following Staub's life as a photographer who's basically lived on red carpets from Cannes to everywhere else that counts. Dude's also the official lensman for Tallinn's Black Nights Film Fest, so he's got roots in his native Estonia while still running the international festival gauntlet.

The doc, called 'A Photographer in Cannes,' premiered at Tallinn's 30th edition of the festival. It's the kind of film that celebrates the people we don't always think about—the ones who make the glamour happen from behind the viewfinder. Staub's story is proof that sometimes the best seat in the house belongs to someone with a camera.

It's a reminder that these festivals aren't just about the stars walking the carpet. They're about the people who document the whole thing, night after night.
