Made of Truth Showcase at Bertha DocHouse
Made of Truth: Hybrid Non-Fiction Shorts
Tuesday 10 December 2024, 6.30pm // Bertha DocHouse, London
As a pre-Christmas treat, BFI Doc Society are excited to present a selection of recent short documentaries funded through our Made of Truth short film fund.
The four films in the programme explore hybrid formal and narrative non-fiction approaches which open up how we might consider tackling challenging subjects, in a programme ranging from eviction to mental health and beyond, as well as the importance of community support and solidarity. These films have found audiences at festivals such as Clermont-Ferrand, Encounters, London Short Film Festival, Final Girls Berlin, Aesthetica, and more.
Several filmmakers will be in attendance for an extended post-screening Q&A, where they will reflect on their work and approaches. It will also be an opportunity to learn about the BFI Doc Society Made of Truth fund, which will reopen in spring 2025.
