RESOURCES
Here are links to some organizations and programs that may be useful to documentary filmmakers, including resources specifically for people of colour:
Documentary Organization of Canada (DOC)
International Documentary Association (IDA)
Firelight Media - Documentary Lab
Kartemquin - Diverse Voices In Docs program
These are some of some key films that have inspired me (that I secretly wish I had helped produce). Interestingly, they are all narrative films, not sure what that means!
