If you click over to the ITVS Beyond the Box Blog, you can read all about the exciting and diverse selection of documentaries that PBS' Independent Lens series has on offer for its new season which starts on Tuesday, October 13.
Some of my faves from this past festival and theatrical season include Mai Iskander's directorial début, Garbage Dreams (also currently qualifying for Oscar consideration as part of IDA's Docuweeks); Michel Orion Scott's The Horse Boy (formerly called Over the Hills and Far Away); Steven Walker's box office hit Young@Heart; Gabriel Noble's P-Star Rising; and Senain Kheshgi and Geeta V. Patel's Project Kashmir.
You can also visit the Independent Lens website for more info.
