DISTRIBUTION OF DOCUMENTARIES


It can be argued that the responsibility to tell important stories falls on the shoulders of documentary filmmakers.  Given the recent unprecedented box-office successes for some documentaries, it is evident that the public desire for more documentary based films is at it strongest, however despite this many extraordinary documentaries have difficulties broadcasting their feature as well as attracting large audiences, due to a lack of publicity, in comparison to blockbuster titles. Nevertheless advances in technology, and the widening of peoples knowledge in software etc can be said to have made it easier for filmmakers to distribute their work.
