The 15th edition of the Montreal International Documentary Festival (RIDM) will take place from November 7 to 18. This anniversary edition will be an inclusive celebration of reality-based cinema and the people behind it. The programming team has selected over a hundred films from 38 countries through a long process and many trips overseas, to bring Montreal audiences an exceptional line-up of films.

To celebrate the festival’s first 15 years, the RIDM team decided to give free rein to a select group of guest programmers. The 15 high-profile personalities in Canadian and global culture each selected one documentary that changed their life. The RIDM is proud to present the favourite documentaries of Philippe Falardeau, Gael García Bernal, Frederick Wiseman, Barbet Schroeder, Agnès Varda, Patricio Guzmán, Lou Reed, Kim Longinotto, Jia Zhang-ke, Alanis Obomsawin, Gilles Jacob, Naomi Kawase, Philip Glass, Laura Poitras and Samira Makhmalbaf.
