Three documentarians with films screening as part of the 2020 DOXA Documentary Film Festival (which has moved online due to the pandemic) speak with Sabrina Furminger about their fearless fact-based work. Finding Sally director Tamara Dawit discusses her journey to learn everything she could about the activist aunt who went missing more than 40 years ago during Ethiopia’s Red Terror; Greg Crompton talks about Eddy’s Kingdom, his stranger-than-fiction documentary about an immigrant to Canada who wanted to build a Middle Eastern–themed amusement park on an island in the Okanagan and ended up leading an embassy hostage-taking in Beirut (interview begins at the 17:52 mark); and Because We Are Girls filmmaker Baljit Sangra reflects on Have You Forgotten Me?, her beautiful short film about North America’s oldest Sikh Temple and the years of struggle it represents (interview begins at the 37:57 mark). Episode sponsor: Fish Flight Entertainment[PS. You haven’t missed a whack of episodes: we’ve combined our previous numbered episodes with our Skype Sessions and "special" episodes to arrive at this new numbering system. -SF]
