Overview
- Access to information and various voices is key to a thriving democracy; Documentary Film Festivals features stories by independent documentary filmmakers that challenge assumptions, foster critical thinking and media literacy through examples of struggles and victories that stimulate our capacity to imagine possibilities
- While providing information, documentary film festivals create a public space and bring people together, contributing to a sense of community locally and solidarity on a global level, and promoting active community engagement
- Film festivals are popular cultural events but rarely are the voices of audience and organizers heard: Documentary Film Festivals: Transformative Learning, Community Building and Solidarity gives their voices a chance to name their learning and the resulting transformations
