Documentary group unveils film award nominees: "

LOS ANGELES, Nov 13 — The International Documentary Association yesterday unveiled nominees for its widely-watched awards, putting its spotlight on non-fiction films that might also compete for Oscars early next year.


The key category of distinguished documentary achievement finds five nominees ranging from a film about four people competing in a television talent show in Afghanistan, “Afghan Star” to the story of a pair of faded rockers hoping for one last grasp at stardom, “Anvil! The Story of Anvil.”


The three other nominees are “Food, Inc.” about the US food industry, “Diary of a Times Square Thief,” which tells of a search for the writer of a diary that was sold on Ebay, and “Mugabe and the White African,” the story of a white African farmer who defies the government of Zimbabwe’s President Robert Mugabe.
