Hamptons Doc Fest announces an expanded, live, eight-day festival in this, its 14th year, with 30 screenings available at two venues in Sag Harbor, December 3-10.

It starts at the Sag Harbor Cinema, the weekend of December 3-5, with eight films including the Opening Night Film, the presentation of the Human Rights Award, the Pennebaker Career Achievement Award, the Art & Inspiration Award, and in collaboration with Sag Harbor Cinema, the Producer Impact Award and posthumous Tribute to Diane Weyermann.

The festivities then flow to the Bay Street Theater, December 6-10, with 22 films including the Environmental Award, the Young Voices Program for students, two Shorts Programs, and ending with the free Saunders Community Day on Friday, December 10.

Hamptons Doc Fest also offers a virtual component of 11 films the following week, December 11-18.

“Returning to the big screens at two iconic venues in Sag Harbor is what we hoped for in 2021. And it’s happening,” said Jacqui Lofaro, founder and executive director of Hamptons Doc Fest. “We are thrilled to share an exciting and diverse program of films with our documentary fans.”
