Data Docs: Open Data on Screen is a day-long documentary screening program on Sun Mar 22 full of films exploring issues New Yorkers care about — street safety, housing, child care, and urban nature — are each paired with NYC Open Data datasets and followed by panel discussions with data experts, City staff, community practitioners, and, where possible, the filmmakers themselves. Between screenings, attendees can visit a data help desk in the lobby staffed by Open Data Week volunteers. Co-presented by the NYC Office of Data Analytics and DCTV, Data Docs brings together filmmakers, academics, civic technologists, and neighborhood residents around shared data and shared stories. Each program block is only $10, or come see all four program blocks for only $30.
