21st Annual Docufest: Atlanta’s Premier Documentary Film Festival
Join us March 20 to 22, 2026 at Limelight Theater for the 21st Annual Atlanta Documentary Film Festival (Docufest), a weekend of powerful, personal, and eye-opening films on the big screen.
For over two decades, Docufest has been a cornerstone of Atlanta’s indie film scene, celebrating visionary filmmakers and the real stories that move us. This year’s lineup offers a wide range of voices and perspectives, from the intimate to the urgent.
Why Attend?
• Discover some of the most talked about documentaries of the year
• Meet the filmmakers and dive deeper in live Q&As
• Be part of a community that believes in the power of real stories to spark real change
Whether you’re a longtime fan or new to the world of docs, Docufest invites you to join the conversation and experience stories that stay with you.
Celebrate the best in documentary storytelling. Check out the official winners of the 2025 Atlanta Docufest and discover the films that moved audiences and judges alike.
All films are carefully reviewed by a panel of passionate documentary filmmakers, curators, and festival staff. We value every submission and treat your work with the same respect and attention we'd want for our own.
Atlanta Docufest welcomes compelling documentary films of all lengths and styles: features, shorts, hybrid docs, experimental, and animated nonfiction films.
Film Festival T-shirts, Sweatshirts, Totes, Mugs, Posters, and much more coming!
