<p>One of the biggest documentary events, festival <strong>Visions du Réel Nyon</strong>, presents a selection of the best world documentaries shown in the section <strong>Etat d'Esprit</strong> FOR a FREE stream from April 29 to May 5.</p> <p>These films will for example include: <strong>Democracy Year Zero</strong> (Tunisian people took only four weeks to topple the hated regime of Ben Ali and, in doing so, paved the way for the “Arab Spring”, one of the major geopolitical upheavals of the early 21st century) and <strong>Once I entered</strong> (With a light hand held camera, Mograbi continues to question the history of Israel. Everything is still possible.).</p> <p>We also recommend <strong>FATHER'S GARDEN – THE LOVE OF MY PARENTS</strong> After a long absence, <em>Peter Liechti</em>* visits his now elderly parents, ready for a close encounter. The stories of their lives and rather difficult marriage are largely presented as a puppet theatre, with the parents, from the lower middle-class, portrayed as hares wearing shirts and aprons. Via the "Punch" character, the rebellious son channels the emotions that overwhelm him in this stunning portrait.</p> <img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ReelisorNews/~4/xP48Gz02quk" height="1" width="1"/>

<p><strong>WebDox 2013 focuses on the state of the art of the interactive webdocumentaries and on its technical aspects.</strong></p> <p>WebDox is not intended to make tech experts out of documentary makers and vice versa. We do want to bring both worlds closer, create a notion about how to sharpen a story, reach a public and engage it. How does user behaviour change once <strong>tablets</strong> are involved? How can <strong>data be collected</strong> and retrieved in a creative way? Which software do you use to make an <strong>interactive</strong> webdocumentary? What are good <strong>open source</strong> platforms? WebDox will give an answer to these questions. We start with an international conference, after which we go to work in three hands-on labs. You can participate in the separate programmes too.</p> <h1>CONFERENCE >>> 06 / 05 LEUVEN</h1> <p>Documentaries and digital technologies have never been closer to each other than today.
