Cinequest is honored to be able to show a line-up of the finest short documentary films we’ve ever encountered. From eight countries and covering topics running from sex work to factory jobs to coin collecting to handwriting, these stories look at portions of the human experience with an eye towards truth and beauty…even if that beauty might dwell in the dark. Animated documentaries shine against experimental works, traditional doc narratives alongside moments captured like flies on the wall. DocuNation will open up new worlds to every viewer, and all just by showing them the fascinating parts of the world around them.
