Last year saw the debut of
Doc Corner, a designated space for registered pass holders to hang out and network. This year the Doc Corner will be moving into the popular Match Club space, located at the 5th Elementt restaurant (1033 Bay Street). We'll be enlivening Doc Corner with a series called Doc Roundtables - held from Sept 9 to 12 during the hours of 2-4 pm - where filmmakers can meet with influential industry players, including distributors, sales agents, festival programmers and others.
Companies participating this year include A&E Indie Films, Discovery Films, Sony Pictures Classics, THINKFilm, Roadside Attractions, Cinetic Media, Submarine Entertainment, Sundance Channel, HBO Documentary, Red Envelope Entertainment, and more. Last year, we incubated this initiative with a successful
one day event. This year will provide even more opportunities to filmmakers, spread over four days.
The most economical way to attend Doc Corner and Match Club is to purchase an Industry Initiatives pass (click

here.
