Documentary cinema does not live only on screens. It also lives in inboxes.
Every week, thousands of filmmakers, producers, programmers, journalists and documentary lovers receive curated newsletters that summarize the most important developments in nonfiction storytelling. From festival announcements and funding opportunities to deep reflections about the craft of documentary filmmaking, these newsletters have become essential tools for anyone who wants to stay connected to the global documentary ecosystem.
Some focus on industry news and financing. Others offer thoughtful criticism and curated recommendations of films to watch. Together they form a fascinating map of how the documentary world thinks, produces and evolves.
Here are some of the most influential documentary newsletters in the world today.
Here at Guidedoc we are lovers of all kinds of documentaries, which is why we have recently achieved an alliance with the UN to bring their award-winning series of short documentaries UN In Action to our platform.
In case you didn't know, Guidedoc is a global curated documentary streaming platform. You can watch the world's best award-winning docs from around the world. We have new movies every day.
UN In Action is a documentary series composed of numerous short episodes that document the work of the United Nations and its agencies worldwide.
With a duration between 3 to 5 minutes, each episode of UN In Action focuses on a specific topic and region of the planet where the United Nations carries out pacification plans or programs aimed at fighting poverty and human rights violations.
Among the issues addressed in the series there is the report from Lebanon about the UN interim force to demine a strip of that country's border with Israel known as the "Blue Line."
Other episodes show the UN's efforts to alleviate the drought crisis in Somalia or the portrait of two panda cubs that were selected by the institution as its first animal ambassadors to spread the Word about the Sustainable Development Goals.
