The Short List<\/span><\/i> with Suroosh Alvi is a series of 9 episodes of, what they call, some of the world\u2019s best documentaries, curated by VICE founder Suroosh Alvi. Each episode features a full documentary accompanied by a presentation by Alvi and a conversation with the filmmakers on the films\u2019 subjects.<\/span><\/p>\n

The series aims to bring the conversations outside of the road of the film festival crowd. That is why we have decided to bring that series to our readers.<\/span><\/p>\n
