See Hear Podcast Episode 82 - Interview with Colm Forde of Doc 'n' Roll

Bernie, Tim and I have never ceased to be amazed at the creativity
and hard work that must go into making a film (any work of art,
really). One thing we've never spoken about on the show is the art
of film curation - a subject that Martin Scorcese himself has
recently written about. Welcome to episode 82 of See Hear Podcast.
Bernie and I spoke with Colm Forde, a man who took it on himself to
start a film festival in London devoted to music documentaries – a
strong part of See Hear's foundation. The festival itself has
spread around the UK over the last few years. Colm had grand plans
for further the festival, but....ya know....bloody Covid....so he
and his team focused on their VOD service. All music docs....all of
the time. The best thing is the films are NOT geo-blocked (unlike
so many streaming sites – and new Facebook policy for some media
websites in Australia) We discussed the trials and tribulations of
film distribution, the delicate art of film selection, why we're
living in a glory day for these sorts of films, and naturally, some
of his favourite music documentaries – on and off the channel. Many
thanks to Colm for his time. If you want to see the amazing
selection of films on the VOD check the website out at
