"It is all documentaries from all different genres and types of styles and subject matter, um, and a lot of the films have, uh, like something kind of on the end of them, uh, with them like a talkback, a Q&A, a panel. We try to create opportunity to create a dialogue and that's why it's called the Dialogues Documentary Festival," Esterline said.
Esterline said organizers received hundreds of entries and that narrowing down the selections was no easy task.
The festival runs through Sunday and supports Milwaukee Film, the nonprofit organization that operates the Oriental and Downer theatres.
