Channel 4, ITN and the  BRITDOC team have put out a call to emerging filmmakers for short documentaries based on footage from ITN's archive - the best documentaries will be broadcast on Channel 4's 3 Minute Wonder strand. The scheme launches tomorrow 23rd February.

  A call for submissions from emerging documentary makers has gone out from DFG Films in partnership with Film London and ITV London. Reel London offers filmmakers an opportunity to produce diverse and distinctive films using the documentary medium in new and innovative ways, and have them broadcast on terrestrial television, mid week, in a pre-watershed slot.

Ali Fadhil is perhaps best known for his documentary film on the aftermath of the US siege on Falluja in November, 2004. In the assault, American and Iraqi forces surrounded Fallujah, expelling the city’s residents, bombing hospitals and shelling buildings. The documentary, "Fallujah - The Real Story" was produced last year by Guardian Films for Channel Four News.
