Newburyport Documentary Film Festival

Our Mission

We are the filmmakers' film festival. Our objective is to present thought-provoking, high-caliber and entertaining documentary film to the vibrant cultural community of greater Newburyport.

We Bring The World to the Clipper City by curating the best of documentary film. With each showcase, we encourage meaningful interaction with our neighbors about social issues, current and historic events, and sometimes the sheer delight of life on planet Earth.

Many Of Our Film Screenings are enhanced by intimate discussions with relevant experts and, whenever possible, the filmmakers themselves, providing our audiences with a unique immersive experience.
