DocStock: King of Laughter

About the Show

Plum TV takes the side of the independent filmmaker and profiles work that is truly independent, and still in progress. DocStock features the very best documentaries-in-progress, along with smart, funny, and pointed interviews with the filmmakers who make them. It is hosted by Rebecca Carroll, a critically acclaimed author, interviewer, and managing editor of Paper Magazine. The life of a film can be changed by the tastemakers that watch our channels: the writers and editors, brokers and reps, lawyers, distributors, filmmakers, directors and producers who love movies and can spot talent when they see it.
