Doc of the Year
JRILL hands out its Doc Of The Year (DOTY) Award to promote a great film from each year. Over time we will include all the year-by-year selections as well as the runner-ups and honourable mentions. The DOTY’s are meant to celebrate the best in thoughtful, clever, dramatic and eye-opening documentary film. Short docs will soon find their way into the mix as well.
