New logo.
Same excellence.

As we enter our second decade as Metro Vancouver’s premier social justice film festival, KDocsFF is proud to present its new logo. While our logo may be new, the exceptional festival experience you have come to expect remains unchanged. We look forward to bringing you more outstanding documentaries, filmmakers, and opportunities for engagement and action.


A celebration of documentary film and documentary Activism


As Metro Vancouver's premier social justice documentary film festival, KDocsFF celebrates the power of documentary film and documentary activism.  Working in partnership with its Festival Partner, the Vancouver International Film Centre + Vancity Theatre, the annual KDocsFF documentary film festival showcases award-winning documentary films, filmmakers, keynote speakers, panelists, audience Q&As, exhibitors, performances, and community partners.  Participants engage in lively discussions, debates, and dialogues as they investigate today's most pressing global issues.

"I engage in dialogue not necessarily because I like the other person. I engage in dialogue because I recognize the social and not merely the individualistic character of the process of knowing. In this sense, dialogue presents itself as an indispensable component of the process of both learning and knowing."   ~ Paulo Freire, Pedagogy of the Oppressed

KDocsFF is proud to operate five engagement streams: our Annual Film Festival, our Year-round Program, our Community Outreach Program, our Social Justice Lab, and our YouTube Channel (“KDocs Talks”).
