Shorts Program 6 - DocuNation

Running time: 107 mins

The 13 residents of the DocuNation program are bold entries into a long line of incredible experiences. Ranging from fascinating animated fare, powerful stories built around found footage, and experimentation within the very nature of what constitutes evidence, each film stands as a powerful record of moments in time. Films that examine the meaning of our roadside symbology run alongside those that examine how we craft our artistic practices. DocuNation pushes the limits of documentary filmmaking into new arenas where they perform as gladiators fighting all preconceptions. Presented In Honor Of Jim Boyce
