The Tribeca Film Festival is world renowned for its indie films and searing stars and the 2011 edition was no exception. If you’re lucky you can catch special features and some of the festival’s best films through providers and websites like www.directstartv.com but if not, here’s a list of our favorite documentaries from Tribeca we think you should seek out:
The Bully Project (USA)- This doc takes on the traumatic and alarming trend of bullying in the US and gives up close and personal accounts from students and teenagers about their bullying experience. Poignant and powerful.
Jiro Dreams of Sushi (USA) – If you’re a foodie, you’re going to love this film. Following an elderly sushi master around for weeks gives producers some of the most appetizing sushi footage ever captured on tape. Eat beforehand or leave hungry.
Marathon Boy (UK, USA, India) – This documentary follows a four-year old Indian boy as he’s plucked from the slums and groomed to become a world-class marathon runner. Heartbreaking at times and uplifting at others, don’t go in without a tissue.
