The festival showcases original international and Irish documentary films and takes place at the Irish Film Institute from September 22nd-25th.
The line-up includes 13 feature length documentaries, 1 world premiere and 8 Irish premieres. Head of Cinema Programming David O’Mahony stated:
“The festival acts as a barometer of where the art of documentary filmmaking is today – as well as being a snapshot of the best of contemporary documentary, the program also presents work that argues for new modes of expression in this important form of filmmaking. We’re delighted to be welcoming some of the best International and Irish documentaries to IFI Documentary Festival this year and to welcome filmmakers to discuss and contextualise their work with IFI audiences.”
