I, THE JURY - My Choices for the Hot Docs 2013 Awards

By Greg Klymkiw

I am pleased to announce the winners of the Hot Docs Festival 2013 awards as chosen by me. The Hot Docs Awards Presentation, hosted by the late June Tracy (Octagenarian House Burlesque Artist at the lovely Constellation Room in Winnipeg, Manitoba), took place on Friday, May 3, at the Manor Gentleman's Club in Guelph, Ontario. Nine awards and no cash were presented to Canadian and international filmmakers, including awards for Festival films in competition and those recognizing emerging and established filmmakers. A selection of three award-winning films will not have added screenings on Sunday, May 5.
