    Each spring, for four days, we welcome the international documentary community to the Bull City. And all year long, at no cost, we give back – to documentary filmmakers, students, educators, our local economy, and you – by hosting free screenings, offering innovative education programs, and facilitating dialogue.

    Pass and ticket sales account for only 25% of our annual budget — we depend on your support to grow our impact. 

    This holiday season, you can support Full Frame by making a gift, joining a membership program, or renewing your membership.

    Full Frame in Focus

    Join us in looking back and celebrating an incredible year. Follow us on social media and right here on our website as we reflect on some of our favorite moments from the past year – from our Road Show and School of Doc to our new Common Ground series and the festival itself. Thank you for helping to make what we do possible with your generous support!

     

    Find Common Ground

    We give back to our growing city by hosting free screenings year-round, locally and across our state, and by driving economic development.

    Empower Voices

    We provide opportunities for local students and educators through School of Doc, Teach the Teachers, and the Youth Screening.

    Nurture Conversation

    For 21 years, the four-day event remains at the heart of what we do. We create space for conversation, nurture myriad perspectives, and party down.
