ATL DOC : ATLANTA DOCUMENTARY FILM FESTIVAL
ATL DOC 2026
Two Decades of Docs That Matter
ATL DOC, formerly known as Atlanta Docufest, is the Southeast’s longest-running documentary film festival. For more than two decades, we’ve created a space for films that reveal truth, spark conversation, and connect audiences through the power of real life on screen.
ATL DOC celebrates 21 years of documentary filmmaking that moves, challenges, and inspires. From local voices to global perspectives, we bring powerful true stories to the big screen.
We showcase independent documentaries that push boundaries, explore new ideas, and celebrate the filmmakers who bring real stories to life with honesty and heart.
ENTER YOUR DOCUMENTARY
We’re looking for powerful, original documentaries of all lengths and styles. Whether your film explores personal stories, social issues, art, culture, or the world around us, ATL DOC is where real stories find their audience. Submit your film and join a 21-year tradition of independent documentary filmmaking in Atlanta.
AWARDS
In 2025, we honored an exceptional lineup of documentary filmmakers who brought compelling, thought-provoking, and powerful stories to the screen.
