ARC DOCS is a South Africa–based non-profit documentary channel that combines feature filmmaking with narrative-driven podcasts to examine social justice, history, science and belief. Formed in 2025 from the coming together of Sound Africa and the film house MED CINE, it carries forward a record of fact-driven storytelling grounded in rigorous reporting and inventive form. Its audio slate includes Unburied, a multi-season series: season one, Built from Bones, traces early 20th‑century exhumations in the Kalahari and today’s movement to return human remains, produced with Iziko Museums of South Africa; season two, The Taung Child, revisits the 1925 fossil discovery that anchored human origins in Africa with the Human Evolution Research Institute. Earlier work such as They Killed Dulcie—created with Open Secrets—probes the assassination of anti-apartheid activist Dulcie September, while One Night in Snake Park investigates xenophobic violence after the 2015 killing of Siphiwe Mahori and was backed by a Taco Kuiper Investigative Journalism grant. Nuclear SA unpacks the country’s secretive nuclear past and its political legacy. On the film side, the feature !AITSA explores meaning and astronomy in South Africa’s Karoo, and the team’s outreach has taken rural screenings to communities with partners like Sunshine Cinema. Through collaborations with public institutions, civil society groups and local communities, ARC builds work that challenges dominant narratives and opens space for voices seldom heard.
