The Dctv Firehouse Cinema – the impressive new venue for documentary film exhibition in Manhattan – will dedicate its lobby tonight in honor of late documentary filmmaker Brent Renaud.
Renaud’s brother, Craig Renaud, will emcee the private event alongside Dctv co-founder and co-executive director Jon Alpert. Additional family and friends of Renaud are expected at the tribute, which will include a presentation of excerpts from the director’s films, and a discussion of his work with guest speakers.
Renaud was on assignment in Ukraine in March for Time studios when a vehicle he was riding in came under fire from Russian forces at a checkpoint near Irpin, just outside of Kyiv. He was killed and another occupant of the car, photojournalist Juan Arredondo, was injured.

For 50 years, the nonprofit documentary production company Dctv has been at the forefront of producing socially conscious nonfiction cinema on a grassroots scale. That mission extended last week to the realization of a longstanding goal with the opening of the Firehouse Cinema, a single-screen theater exclusively dedicated to showing documentary films located at Dctv’s Lower Manhattan headquarters, in the same old firehouse that co-founders Jon Alpert and Keiko Tsuno have worked for decades.
Alpert has leaned into the building’s history, outfitting the concession stand with the front of an old fire truck, working with firefighters to make movies for an upcoming firefighter film festival, and even populating descriptions of his goals during an interview with firehouse puns.
“We wanted a place where documentaries weren’t tagging along in the caboose,” he told IndieWire. “They were in the engine car.” Later, he added: “We are six rungs above the...

The Downtown Community Television Center (Dctv) is officially launching its own nonprofit documentary cinema in New York City.
Starting September 23, the Chinatown-based theater Firehouse: Dctv’s Cinema for Documentary Film will offer a dedicated space for documentary films featuring first-run debuts and curated programs, making it one of the few documentary-centric theaters in the world. Dctv was co-founded in 1972 by Academy Award-nominee and documentary stalwart Jon Alpert (“Life of Crime: 1984 – 2020”) and Keiko Tsuno, who both currently serve as the organization’s Co-Executive Directors and who together have received 16 Emmy Awards.
“We used to show our documentaries on the corner of Canal Street from an oíd mail truck we bought for 5,” Alpert and Tsuno said in a joint statement. “We had two black and white TV sets and a sound system that was like two tin cans and a piece of string. It took 50 years to build the Dctv Firehouse Cinema,...

Directors Michael Moore and Morgan Spurlock dug in at the breaking ground ceremony for the new Downtown Community Television Center (Dctv) state-of-the-art cinema for documentaries in New York earlier this week.
The cinema on Lafayette Street, in Lower Manhattan, which is scheduled to open in 2015, will be the first documentary cinema in the city. The 73-seat, fully-interactive, digital theatre will provide theatrical runs to non-fiction filmmakers for Academy Award qualification.
Some of those shovelling the ceremonial dust from the super-sized kitty litter box for the groundbreaking included New York City Cultural Affairs Commissioner Kate Levin, Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer, New York City Council Member Margaret Chin and co-founders Jon Alpert and Keiko Tsuno as well as a dynamic crowd of politicians, documentarians, and media.

Neither of us is old enough to have been fooled by the Trojan Horse (see Wikipedia). But we each have been working in public television decades enough to remember the days when distribution was handled by physically transporting bulky 2-inch videotapes from station to station -- "bicycled" was the word -- and much of the broadcast day and night was devoted to blackboard lectures, string quartets and lessons in Japanese brush painting: The old educational television versions of reality TV.
Yet it also was a time of innovation and creativity. As the system evolved we saw bold experiments like Pbl - the Public Broadcasting Laboratory and Al Perlmutter's The Great American Dream Machine, each a predecessor to the commercial TV magazine shows 60 Minutes and 20/20. The TV Lab, jointly run by David Loxton at Wnet in New York and Fred Barzyk at Wgbh in Boston, nurtured and encouraged the first generation...
