As one of the directors of the True/False Film Fest, David Wilson spends a matter of days each spring making impassioned introductions, bringing documentaries he and “co-conspirator” Paul Sturtz find compelling and creative before what has become an increasingly diverse audience. Then, in one of the festival’s hallmarks, he helps forge bonds and cultivate conversations between filmgoer and filmmaker, connecting the wide set of eyes that peered behind the camera with the wide sets of eyes processing the work. On Tuesday, Wilson will be on the other side of the ledger. His short film, “Big Birding Day,” will be introduced to a national television audience when it screens on PBS as part of the widely acclaimed “POV” program, a milestone moment for Wilson on a platform that’s “about as big as it gets in terms of exposure,” he said.
