Docs in Theaters: More Expansions for the New Year

There are no official new theatrical releases for documentary this week, but I have updated the expanded release and still playing sections heavily. During the holidays the list was looking very slim but there are some titles returning to the calendar and a few small docs that I’m just adding for the first time, including Crazy Wisdom (pictured above), Farmageddon, Inni and Over Your Cities Grass Will Grow. Films suddenly back in the game with new locations include El Bulli, Everyday Sunshine, The Interrupters, Khodorkovsky, Pianomania, Senna and Urbanized.

Here is a trailer for Crazy Wisdom:
