Dear Film Festival Research List members,

Though many of us don't know each other, I wanted to personally invite you to join me on a documentary film field trip to Montreal this November. All are welcome (programmers, filmmakers, and academics, especially, are strongly encouraged to attend) and undergrads can opt to earn credit. Register by September 28.

We piloted a similar class at Salem Film Fest earlier this year and will be running that class again next March. Learn more at: http://salemfilmfest.com/2014/2014/missing-salem-film-fest-head-to-montreal-with-other-doc-lovers/.

Please share this email.

Thanks so much,
