Out of Print: the Documentary

This year's Tribeca Film Festival features a documentary called Out of Print, about the future of ebooks and the ways they are changing reading throughout the world. The film, from Vivienne Roumani, features interviews with science fiction legend Ray Bradbury, Amazon.com founder and CEO Jeff Bezos, and self-published author Darcie Chan among others. 

One important point the film makes is the importance of ebooks to humanitarian efforts. Organizations like Worldreader would not be possible without electronic publishing, due to the challenges of transporting physical books in undeveloped parts of the world.
