Short Docs could have referred to small doctors, but instead, it refers to an often overlooked genre in the film industry: short animated documentaries. Animation can help bring real stories to life and deal with traumas, memories, unresolved conflicts and so on. Reality is the birthplace of these short docs. Real stories, real subjects, real emotions.
