DOCUMENTARY AND ENVIRONMENT

Deadline: may 31st, 2016

The issue of the environment has never been so present on the agenda of 
our planet, since the negative consequences of man's action on our 
habitat is being felt in every corner of the globe.

The World Meteorological Organization, in a report published last 
November, pointed out 2015 as the hottest ever recorded. The COP 21, 
just concluded in Paris, mobilized 150 heads of state and government in 
an attempt to restraint a global warming that seems inevitable. In this 
process of searching for solutions to a problem that threatens our very 
survival, the documentary has been an important and effective actor 
denouncing the threats to our future and showing alternative ways; also 
documentary is keen in celebrating the benefits of preservation and the 
wonders of nature to which we belong.

The relationship between human beings and the environment has been 
scrutinized by the non-fiction film throughout its history. So, for 
thematic dossier of the 20th edition of DOC On-line we expect 
contributions that explore documentaries' artistic, social and political 
potential regarding the environmental issue in all its aspects.
