In the Spotlight today is the 3rd Annual ArcLight Documentary Festival, honoring 25 of the most exceptional documentary films on the festival circuit. As any storyteller knows, many of the best and most dramatically satisfying tales are those that simply can't be dreamed up. ArcLight Doc Fest captures and celebrates the innate power of real people with real concerns, real dreams, and real achievements. Last year's grand prize-winning title, Open Heart, told the true story of eight Rwandan children who embark to Africa's only free-of-charge, state-of-the-art cardiac hospital in search of life-saving care. Who knows what tales will capture audience hearts this year?
Eager to engage in all manner of great, true-life tales, ArcLight Doc Fest welcomes both feature-length and short-form documentary projects. Competitive categories-including Biographical Documentary, Social Issues Documentary, Entertainment Documentary, and more-round out this incredible five-day celebration and offer category winners $500 USD for their efforts, while the producer of the grand prize-winning film receives $10,000. Even more valuable than the prize money, however, is the ability of ArcLight Doc Fest to make networking with other documentarians and industry insiders a breezy, casual, and career-shaping experience.
