Description

Document is the only dedicated international human rights documentary film festival in Scotland. Held annually in October, we are a grassroots initiative that aims to use film as an advocacy tool to raise the profile and promote debate of human rights and social issues across the globe.

Document has built its reputation by screening films which critically engage with the world we live in at the start of the 21st century; stories at once personal and universal in significance, by emerging and established filmmakers from every country and culture. The festival provides a unique platform that attracts Scottish, UK and international documentary filmmakers and promotes local and international discussion, cultural exchange and education.

We screen a large and diverse selection of human rights films that are rarely shown in the UK to offer a broader understanding of issues often ignored by the mainstream media.

Document will celebrate 10 years of existence this year and will provide a 10 day festival packed with film / music events / exhibitions / post screening discussions / debates / forums / bookstalls and signings.
