Klaus Nomi in the cult classic rockumentary, Urgh! A Music War. See it at Docfest
When most fans of fictional film think of documentaries, the word ”boring” immediately arises. If ever the case was to be made for just how non-boring and highly entertaining documentaries are capable of being, look no further than San Francisco’s Docfest.
As the old saying goes, Truth is stranger than fiction, and this year’s festival is sure to prove that to both non-believers of the documentary format and to those, like myself, who prefer it and already know such sayings to be true.
So, rather than escape into the world of make-believe, why not escape into the world of reality… well, reality as seen through the editor’s and director’s vision that is.
Enough thanks can not be given to the always handsome, Lord Byron, for whose coining of the phrase, “Truth is stranger than fiction” enabled me to make my brief point as to why documentaries should be seen. Thank you, my Lord. Ticket and full schedule info after the jump
The wonderful world of non-fiction awaits you at Roxie Cinema. Tickets can be bought here: Documentary Film Festival Ticket info
