This summer, the Hamptons International Film Festival (HIFF) SummerDocs Series will be returning for its eighth annual showcase of the best in documentary filmmaking. The screenings will run from Saturday, July 9th to Saturday, August 27th, and will open with a viewing of Author: The JT Leroy Story on July 9th at 7 p.m., followed by Betting on Zero on August 6th at 7:30 p.m.

“Now in its eighth year, the SummerDocs Series has become one of the most anticipated and respected film events in the New York and Hamptons summer calendar,” said Hamptons International Film Festival Co-Chairman and SummerDocs series presenter Alec Baldwin. “We are proud to once again screen some of the best in documentary filmmaking to our audiences and provide and insightful look into the process in conversations with leading filmmakers.”

Some of the SummerDocs’ past selections including, Twenty Feet from Stardom, Last Days of Vietnam, The Cove, Searching for Sugar Man, and How to Survive a Plague, have gone on to receive Academy Award acclaim.

Following the screening of Author: The JT Leroy Story, the film’s director, Jeff Feuerzeig, will take part in a conversation led by Alec Baldwin and Hamptons International Film Festival Artistic Director David Nugent. Baldwin will also anchor conversations after the screenings of Betting on Zero with Director Ted Braun, and A Perfect Candidate with Directors R.J. Cutler and David Van Taylor.

“Each year we look to raise the bar and we’re excited at the lineup of outstanding documentaries curated for the 2016 SummerDocs series. Each of these films encompass thought-provoking subject matter that will engage and entertain audiences,” said Nugent. “For the first time in the series’ history we’re also including a classic documentary whose political subject matter will allow for a fascinating discussion in this sui generis election year.”

“Our mission is to deliver a cohesive film program to our loyal audience throughout the year,” added Hamptons International Film Festival Executive Director, Ann Chaisson. “Our popular summer season is integral in obtaining that goal and we are thankful to our partners at Guild Hall and the Southampton Arts Center.”

Additionally, the Hamptons International Film Festival will focus on budding filmmakers this summer during its Student Summer Filmmaking Workshops. The program gives students ages 8 to 15 the opportunity to learn about and make their own films, which are then showcased on screen for family and friends at the end of the week. Workshops will be held at Guild Hall on Monday, July 18th through Friday, July 22nd, and at the Southampton Arts Center on Monday, July 25th through Friday, July 29th.

  • Discover Hamptons History with East Hampton Historical Society’s Guided Tours

We all know that September is the best month in the Hamptons. The summer renters have mostly gone (we’ll miss you!). The weather practically demands that you go out for a walk. Maybe you’ve been too busy at the beach or planning activities for the kids, but now that it’s September, take a stroll, stretch your legs, and explore the rich, beautiful history around the Hamptons.

The East Hampton Historical Society is hosting Guided Walking Tours around the Hamptons all September long, so stay a while and listen.

I love walking tours not just because of the guides, who are great storytellers, but the company and conversations sparked with other attendees. We’re the kind of people you’ll see, hands on hips, squinting to read the well-worn plaque on a historical monument. The people who read those brown signs, who pick up and read the local leaflets at a museum or hotel lobby.  @easthampton_histsoc

  • Real Estate with Diane Saatchi: The One That Got Away

When most people think back to the one that got away, they think about relationships.

I think about real estate.

After 35 years of selling real estate, I’ve seen more instances of homebuyers and sellers getting fixated on the one that got away than you’d think. For buyers, it could be that perfect three-bedroom waterfront cottage that was snapped up the day after they viewed it.

In cases like these, the one that got away isn’t just a quiet reminiscence — it’s a shadow that falls over the months and even years to come, making it difficult if not impossible for would-be buyers to find something that measures up to what they had, or thought they had, before.

  • Why September is the Best Month in the Hamptons and What to Do

If you can allow yourself to believe it, September in the Hamptons is without a doubt the best month to be here. The traffic has subsided, the parking restrictions have come to an end, and the weather is the kind of weather you wish summer was: not too hot, but definitely still hot enough to go to the beach and enjoy the sunshine, and a lot less humid. September in the Hamptons is simply awesome.
