2010 IDA Documentary Awards Winners

Not among yesterday’s documentary nominees from the PGA, Waster Land is nevertheless on the Oscar Doc short list. Two top honors yesterday from the International Documentary Association keep it very much in play.

Earlier this year Waste Land won the Documentary World Cinema award at Sundance and earned two prizes at the Berlin Film Festival — the Panorama Audience Award and the Amnesty International Film Prize.
