    Discovering Talent. Sharing Stories. Bridging Communities.

    Mission & Objective:

    NHdocs invites documentary filmmakers from all over to share their unique perspectives and stories. As we nurture emerging talent and showcase seasoned professionals, we celebrate documentaries that resonate and make a difference.

    About the Festival:

    Set in the culturally rich environment of Connecticut, NHdocs is a platform where documentaries from local and global narratives get the spotlight they deserve. For Connecticut’s rising stars, an all-day event on Saturday, October 14th promises a deep dive into the dynamic world of filmmaking. And with all our venues, including the New Haven Free Public Library, Cafe 9, Bow-Tie Criterion Cinemas, and more just a short walk apart, attending couldn’t be easier.

    Origins of NHdocs:

    NHdocs began as a dream in 2014 by four New Haven filmmakers who were inspired in Missoula, Montana. They envisioned a Connecticut-based festival that celebrated the documentary medium while fostering community connections. That vision is now NHdocs.

    Awards & Recognitions:

    Golden Slice Award: Celebrating outstanding documentaries in both feature and short categories, with accolades spanning from editing to cinematography.
    NHdocs Student Competition 2023: Open to students from CT, RI, MA, VT, NH, ME, and NY. Exciting prizes include gear, cash rewards, and certificates.
    The Connecticut Vegan Student Filmmaker Challenge 2023: In collaboration with the Connecticut Vegan Center, we invite vegan student filmmakers to spotlight the vegan lifestyle. Winners can anticipate cash prizes and exclusive screening opportunities.

    Note: Eligible films should be completed after January 2022. Preference will be given to Connecticut premieres.

    As we mark the 10th anniversary of the NHdocs STUDENT FILM COMPETITION, we invite entries across three categories: Best college, high/middle school, and VEGAN short student films. Deadline for submission is September 12, 2023.
