Johan Grimonprez, a filmmaker known for spending years and years researching projects and making wondrous use of archival material, graces the cover on the worldwide release of his latest, Soundtrack to a Coup d’État. The cover feature is an extended conversation between Grimonprez and film writer Öykü Sofuoğlu. In a special dossier, four articles in this issue address how policy could help documentary filmmakers—and address just the smallest bit of all of the possibilities. Articles featured in the print version will be published online between March–June 2025.

The Sound of Toys
THE SOUND OF TOYS documents the digital music revolution sparked by Casio keyboards in the 1980s. Weaving together personal stories of amateur and professional musicians, the film charts the far-reaching influence of these affordable consumer instruments, both beloved and dismissed as cheesy toys. Through its interlocking narrative spanning decades and cultures, the documentary also re-examines the history of popular music, its folklore, and the global exchange of ideas between musicians and technicians.
