About Homegrown DocFest
NW Documentary's "Homegrown DocFest" will feature films produced during
Do-It-Yourself (DIY) Documentary workshop.
These
quirky, enlightening and endearing short documentary films will introduce a
host of colorful, local characters, and topics such as three Portland
comedians, the revival of Absinthe, local band No Kind of Rider, an existential
philosopher and a Portland butcher.
Filmmaker
Q&As and the release of the 2010 Fall Catalog of NW Documentary workshops
follow the screening. Music by Ritchie Young of Loch Lomond.
The NW Documentary workshops offer locals the
training to create their very own short documentaries. Participants research,
write, direct, shoot and edit their original creative audiovisual works.
NW Documentary is a 501c3 non-profit that tells
untold stories, teaches others to tell their stories, and brings community
together in the sharing of significant non-fiction stories.
