Doc Talk Podcast Opens Black Box, Discovers Shiori Ito, ‘Queendom’ And More Winners Of 40th IDA Documentary Awards


Deadline’s Doc Talk podcast was at the 2024 IDA Awards, speaking with victorious filmmakers and executives right after their acceptance speeches.

(We would have spoken with the directors of No Other Land, which won Best Documentary Feature at the IDA Awards, but as you heard on a recent Doc Talk podcast, the collective of four Israeli and Palestinian filmmakers couldn’t leave the Middle East to attend the ceremony.) Queendom director Agniia Galdanova and producer Igor Myakotin give us insight into how the heroine of their film — the extraordinary drag performance artist Jenna Marvin – is doing after being essentially hounded out of her native Russia. We also talk with Career Achievement Award winner Dawn Porter, who explains how the example of the late civil rights movement leader John Lewis is sustaining her as she absorbs the results of the presidential election.
