DocuWeek NY kicked off on the same day as the Beijing Olympics splashy opening ceremonies, but that didn't overshadow the coverage that the 11th annual theatrical documentary showcase received in some of the New York press.

Here's a preview of the IDA-produced event from the New York Sun.

The New York Times reviewed two DocuWeek '08 films: The Forgotten Woman and Spirit of the Marathon.

Plus, don't miss this feature piece in the NYT from a month back about Fire Under the Snow.
