CBC Television presents a new documentary series that brings viewers closer to the stories that shape their country, their culture and their world. DOC ZONE brings together both independent and CBC in-house produced documentaries, stories that chronicle the human experience-from triumph to tragedy, and everything in between. The fall season of DOC ZONE airs Thursday evenings at 8 p.m., from Oct. 12 through Dec. 7 on CBC Television.

CBC has long held the reputation of being one of the premier documentary production units in the world, winning critical acclaim both in Canada and abroad. Working with international partners and Radio-Canada, DOC ZONE promises to bring viewers the best documentaries week after week.
