It’s here! Last night was opening night at The Documentary Edge Festival (in Auckland, Welly got it on Monday) and the next 11 days looks set to keep documentary fans busy and excited.
The whole line-up looks fascinating but for those of you who can’t dedicate the next 11 days of your lives to mind-expanding doco marathons, here’s The Daily Blog’s top ten (in no particular order):
