Description
Fall is upon us, and what better way to begin this new season than in the cozy atmosphere at the Camden International Film Festival in mid-coast Maine - a major documentary event in the United States.
In anticipation for this year's festival, I caught up with Milton Guillén, Senior Programmer at CIFF to provide texture around this year's stellar line-up and how the program came together. We also discuss some of the talks and panels that will be on offer.
The festival will take place from September 15th - 18th with an online edition available to stream for North American audiences until September 25th.
Moderated by Christina Zachariades, Docs in Orbit
