The multiple-platform DOCURAMA brand, under the auspices of Cinedigm, launches on April 22 with a seven-week, seven-film series of screenings in theaters across the country. At the same time, the company will launch a free-to-consumer, ad-supported OTT streaming service, further broadening the scope of the brand to an audience of millions.
Resembling a film festival format, Cinedigm will present seven feature-length documentaries at theaters in up to 15 US markets, with each film being screened multiple times per week. All seven films will also be available for by-demand theatrical screenings across the country through a partnership with Tugg.
The slate of seven films (see below) includes newly acquired titles fresh off the festival circuit. The hand-picked selection spans the breadth of subject matter currently occupying documentary filmmakers: politics, the environment, social issues, personal profiles and pop culture. Each feature film screening will be preceded by a 3-minute short film from GE FOCUS FORWARD-Short Films, Big Ideas. These short films will be screening for the first time theatrically as part of the DOCURAMA series.
