Bags Packed, Passport Stamped: Doc Talk Podcast Goes Inside UK’s Sheffield DocFest And France’s Sunny Side Of The Doc

Deadline’s Doc Talk podcast interviews the leaders of two major documentary events: Sheffield DocFest in the UK and Sunny Side of the Doc in France.

Shortly after Sheffield DocFest wrapped, it was time for the 35th edition of Sunny Side of the Doc, the biggest documentary marketplace in the world, which transpires in La Rochelle, France, along the Atlantic Coast. On the latest episode of Deadline’s Doc Talk podcast, we speak with the leaders of those two major documentary events: Raul Niño Zambrano, creative director of Sheffield DocFest, and Mathieu Béjot and Aurélie Reman, who head up Sunny Side. Niño Zambrano tells us about Swinton’s debut, why actor Michael Sheen came to DocFest, and what he sees as the future of documentary film in a challenging time for nonfiction cinema distribution.
