There's a really nice article in Indiewire about the first Cinema Eye Awards.
Congratulations to AJ Schnack and Thom Powers for this excellent event and their celebration of documentaries.
I was honored to be a part of the voting community for the awards and so glad that these films got some well deserved attention.
It drives me crazy to hear Jason Kohn talk about his frustrations in the small audiences for documentaries, his movie rocks and you gotta see it!
Every year when we're programming for AFI FEST, the documentaries are often the strongest films submitted and all you want is for people to see them and be changed by their stories.
The audience is growing, but there are so many amazing documentaries that need more eyes on them.
