About Doc Screen

Doc Screen is an initiative run by Scottish Documentary Institute in partnership with Filmhouse aiming to bring more independent documentaries into the cinema and to open up spaces for political and creative forms of expression, debate and solidarity. 

With the support of Film Hub Scotland, we embark on this journey in Edinburgh, with the reopening of the much-loved Filmhouse, as part of our broader aim to champion and enhance the distribution of documentaries in Scotland. By working collaboratively with the filmmaking community and with Scotland-based exhibitors, we co-curate and facilitate a regular provision of local and international independent documentaries that rarely get screened otherwise. 

Doc Screen is a part of a growing network of organisations with a mission to screen independent docs, sharing a belief that documentary can (and does) change the world. Documentary is urgent, inclusive, challenging and moving. Documentary is cinema and it is irresistible.

Supported by Film Hub Scotland, part of the BFI’s Film Audience Network, awarding funding on behalf of Screen Scotland and the BFI National Lottery.
