Document was Scotland´s first ever independent international film festival dedicated to screening documentaries that reflect on a wide range of international human rights concerns. It is a festival that has come out of community and reflects the concerns of community. The festival brings films from around the world to inform, challenge and inspire a local audience, and to support filmmakers whose work has international resonance as an act of witness.<

Entering its sixth year with a continued remit of screening innovative and
often under-represented work, Document will showcase culturally significant
human rights content as a means of promoting critical debate on some of
the major issues of our times. In its programming, associated events and
discussions, Document aims to challenge preconcieved assumptions of cultural
and individual identity by offering the viewera broader perspective on
human rights issues than is common in the established broadcast and print
media.In providing a platform for an inclusive range of ideas and individuals, Document also wishes to maintain a historically Scottish tradition of open democratic debate within the wider context of the contemporary global arena. We live in a world where some local effect in a distant continent can be linked causally to a larger political or economic decision made in the centres of power, a decision which impacts on us in a different way. In this sense we see Document as a key forum and information exchange for all those who are concerned with these questions. As such, Document 6 welcomes visitors old and new back to the CCA to share in a celebration of Human Rights and a dynamic programme of related documentaries- good films, some heartbreaking, some uplifting, some both, many of which you are unlikely to see on any TV channel or in any other cinema in the UK any time soon.
