SILVERDOCS | Documentary Film Festival

by SilverDocs
(Silver Spring, Maryland)


Held every June, Silverdocs is the most talked about documentary festival in the United States, called "Non-Fiction Nirvana" by Variety, the "Pre-eminent documentary Festival in the US" by Screen International and the "premiere showcase for documentary film" by Hollywood Reporter.

Silverdocs encompasses a seven-day international film festival and five-day concurrent conference that promotes documentary film as a leading art form, supports the work of independent filmmakers and fosters an atmosphere for public dialogue and civic engagement around the issues and ideas explored in the films.

Silverdocs was created through a unique alliance between AFI and the Discovery Channel, the festival's Founding Sponsor.
