October,
a dark and dreich month here in Scotland, but we have one thing that
brightens up the month, Glasgow's own International Human Rights
Documentary Film Festival. This will be the ninth year of this
festival, hence its name DOCUMENT 9. and
it is appropriately named, 2011 - A Year of Protest. Those
who put this festival together, start the hectic and sometimes tiring
work immediately after each festival, it takes a year of meetings
viewings and all the other bits the film goers don't see, all we see
is the wonderful and exciting results, which this year will run from
20 - 23 October. The festival will be screening over 50 International
human rights documentary films along with talks, discussions, live
art, performances, exhibitions and music. The launch of the festival
takes place at the CCA 350 Sauchiehall Street Glasgow, 7pm on the 20
October 2011. The film festival runs in conjunction with a series of
exhibitions, running from 13 – 23 October.
All
the details and venues of the Film Festival and the Exhibitions can
