Tonight sees the return of Document Festival to Glasgow, Scotland's longest running, and only, international documentary film festival dedicated to human rights.
Running at the CCA on Sauchiehall Street until Sunday, October 22, Document examines a broad spectrum of human rights issues, tackling gender equality, the refugee crisis, censorship and global capitalism.
Having screened over 600 films since 2003, the festival has become a significant player in the field of international human rights, helping to promote the image of Scotland abroad as a tolerant and multicultural society.
