2019 wasn’t just a tremendous year for docs - it was also a tremendous year for Dogwoof. Here are the highlights of the year from the Dogwoof team.

My highlight has been the support I’ve received from the team throughout the year - BEST-TEAM-EVER
OLI HARBOTTLE
The continued success of Maiden, which we launched with a fantastic event here in March and which has won over audiences both here and internationally, especially in the US where it has made over $3 million and made the Oscar documentary shortlist. Tracy Edwards, what a hero.
MARCEL KARST
Free Solo winning the BAFTA and being lucky enough to be there to witness it!

North America sales of Women Make Film following its world premiere at TIFF.
CHLOE ABRAHAMS
Sharing many meals throughout the year with the team and introducing everyone to Sri Lankan Lamprais wrapped in banana leaves!
DAN GREEN
What a fantastic year for home entertainment! First, National Geographic's Free Solo won both the BAFTA and Oscar for Documentary (below) and we ended the year with a fantastic run of DVD & Blu-ray releases including our biggest yet - Apollo 11, in collaboration with NBC Universal.
DROO PADHIAR
My highlight of the year was working on the Apollo 11 campaign. It was lovely to be greeted into the Dogwoof team and launching (sorry!) straight first into one of the best docs of the year. The Marketing team did an excellent job of the campaign and what a bonus to have crossed £1m on the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. Lift off!
JIM CHERRY
Santa always delivers.
Ratios matter.
LUCY STEVENS
One of my highlights this year was our annual Dogwoof Christmas party, where the team really went all-out with their costumes. It was also a great opportunity to celebrate this year's achievements and to congratulate everyone on their hard work.

My highlight of the year was Maiden sailing at over $3,000,000 at the US box-office and being shortlisted for the Oscars !
ELEONORA PASSELLI
Joining such a welcoming, fantastic team just in time for a glorious Christmas Party - where I was surprisingly wearing the only Apollo 11 costume!
