DocuWeeks 2012

This annual three-week series surveys the best in recent documentary films. A number of past entries have been nominated for Oscars, so this is a good place to get a jump on next year’s potential awards slate. Among the highlights are the Don Cheadle–narrated Haiti doc, La Source, and Love Free or Die, Macky Alston's profile of gay bishop Gene Robinson. Screenings take place at IFC Center (323 Sixth Ave at 3rd St) from Aug 3 to 23; visit ifccenter.com/series/16th-annual-docuweeks for more information.
