Documentary festival hotDocs announces first Australian program

The corruption taking place in The Road is a reality for anyone doing business, or thinking about doing business, in China today.”

Its artistic director, Richard Moore, said hotDocs will be the country’s first major film festival dedicated solely to documentaries, sitting alongside some state-based documentary festivals including Antenna (New South Wales), the Australian International Documentary Conference (Melbourne), and Stranger than Fiction (Australian Capital Territory).

Moore says the partnership with the Canadian festival was born out of a desire to see more documentaries on the big screen.
