The event takes place annually in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The 26th edition of the festival will take place from April 25 to May 5, 2019, and feature a lineup of 234 films and 18 interdisciplinary projects from around the world.[1] In addition to the Festival, Hot Docs owns and operates Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema, administers multiple production funds, and runs year-round screening programs including Doc Soup and Hot Docs Showcase. HistoryHot Docs was founded in 1993 by the Documentary Organization of Canada, previously known as the Canadian Independent Film Caucus. The DOC is a national association of independent filmmakers.[2] Paul Jay, then chair of the CIFC, was the founding board chairperson and Debbie Nightingale was the event producer. The first event was held in February 24 to 27, 1994, including the first industry conference and the National Documentary Film Awards.[3] In 1996, Hot Docs separated from the DOC to become an individual entity with a mandate to showcase and support the work of Canadian and international documentary filmmakers and to promote excellence in documentary production.[4] In 1998, Chris McDonald, formerly of the Canadian Film Centre, was hired as its first full-time employee. FestivalEach year, the festival screens over 200 documentaries from countries around the world. In addition to the Canadian and international competitive programs, each festival includes themed programs along with Outstanding Achievement Award, Focus On and Redux retrospective programs.
