Doc festival turns to Indiegogo to finance youth screenings

The Montreal International Documentary Festival has turned to Indiegogo to fund screenings for young audiences.

The crowd-funding campaign, to run to March 1 2013, will help underwrite screenings that started last year, and aim to introduce documentary cinema via special screenings in Montreal.

In all, RIDM/MIDF is looking for $10,000, and any amount is sought from Indiegogo donors.

Quebec’s only film festival dedicated to documentaries will hold its 2013 edition in November.
