Press pause on fiction and celebrate the power of documentary storytelling on the big screen, co-presented with the Australian International Documentary Conference.
Celebrate this year’s AIDC program with a tightly curated selection of documentaries from Australia and around the world.
This year, our program weaves into the fabric of the conference's theme: Future Telling. Celebrating innovation in form (About a Hero), creative documentary (The Wolves Always Come at Night), powerful observations (Hollywoodgate) or those leading the way in Oscar®-nominated investigative storytelling (Sugarcane, Black Box Diaries), these films are guiding the way to the future of documentary cinema.
