Open City Documentary Festival
Open City Documentary Festival creates an open space in London to nurture and champion the art of non-fiction cinema. We have an annual week long film festival which presents a diverse programme of international contemporary and retrospective non-fiction film, audio and cross media, as well as filmmaker Q&As, panels, talks and workshops. The 13th edition of the festival will take place in London 6-12 September 2023.
We also deliver training programmes, publish the Non-Fiction Journal and screen projects throughout the year that aim to challenge and expand the idea of documentary in all its forms.
