The Montreal International Documentary Festival is a premier event in North America, showcasing over 120 Canadian and international documentaries annually.

Established in 1998 by Quebec filmmakers, it has grown significantly, now attracting over 63,000 attendees with its diverse programming, including retrospectives, debates, and parallel activities.

RIDM highlights innovative and thought-provoking documentary cinema, addressing pressing global issues and pushing creative boundaries. The festival fosters connections between artists and audiences through masterclasses, discussions, and gatherings.

Since 2004, Forum RIDM, Quebec’s only documentary forum, has supported independent documentary production with mentorship programs, professional sessions, and a documentary market, enhancing collaboration and talent development within the industry.
