This program includes exceptional contemporary works in the genre of documentary. From a cannabis farm in Kentucky to a Vietnamese-American mother and martial artist and portraits of Syrian women, these makers describe real-life people through their own stylized lens. The form of Documentary is unique in that it gives filmmakers the ability to empathetically study diverse views on reality, and allows audiences to see the world through another’s perspective. No matter your interests, viewers will find struggle, emotion, and humor within the content of this program.
