TDF

The 22nd Thessaloniki Documentary Festival (TDF), which was postponed amid concerns over the coronavirus pandemic in March, will be moved online, organizers said Wednesday.

This year's films, including 77 local productions, will be screened between May 19-28. Films will only be available for 400 free viewings. They will not be accessible outside Greece.

Nominated for this year's Academy Award for best documentary feature, "Faces Places" by 89-year-old French New Wave pioneer Agnes Varda and French guerrilla "photograffeur" JR will open the 20th Thessaloniki Documentary Festival (TDF), which starts on March 2.

The Thessaloniki Documentary Festival (TDF), Greece's biggest film gathering dedicated to fact-finding features, kicks off its 10-day program in the northern port city on Friday, March 3.

As fake news, alt-facts and post-truths infect the world like a disinformation disease, fact-finding films can serve as a welcome antidote.
