for Disability Arts
and Culture
DOXA
is presented by the
Documentary Media Society,
a Vancouver based non-profit
society (incorporated
in 1998) composed of
film and video makers,
curators, and cultural
workers devoted to
presenting independent
and innovative documentaries
to Vancouver audiences.
The society exists
to broaden the audience
for documentary film
and video, and to broaden
the definitions of
documentary.
