Our family cracked up when we saw the ads. It's fictional non-fiction designed to appeal to people with an interest in the documentary form. The main web site for the festival is www.docnzfestival.com. What puzzles me is why the ads were limited to the Arts and National Geogrpahic channels in NZ.
Now that's art!

The Vancouver International Film Festival ("The Pants I Have Owned") beat them to it, and even that wasn't the first to do the same execution.
It's just tired. That's all.
