Dok.cetera: April’s Documentary Recommendations

21 April, 2021

Across the non-fiction circuit, April brings the unofficial start to spring festival season. This year, it is one that extends well into summer due to… well, you already know. Currently happening online (and with last week’s announcement of the country’s cinemas reopening) and on location in Nyon, Switzerland, Visions du Réel presents its 52nd(!) edition between April 15–25. Then, right in the middle of that event, Copenhagen’s CPH:DOX kicks off on April 21 through May 12. The North American continent also sees two prominent non-fiction festival events as Toronto’s Hot Docs kicks off April 30 through May 9, and New York City’s Film at Lincoln Center’ New Directors/New Films (screening, amongst others, Taming the Garden – one of February’s documentary recommendations) taking place from April 28 to May 8.
