Morning Brews with the BFI Doc Society team

The BFI Doc Society team hosts regular online coffee mornings, during which you can ask us questions about our funds, get advice on challenges you're dealing with, connect with other filmmakers and maybe even get some peer-to-peer feedback.

We aim to host these hour-long gatherings twice per month, with a capacity of max 10 attendees per session. Filmmakers cannot attend more than one coffee morning per three months.

Please note that we can not discuss any active applications to our funds. If you have access requirements to attend, please email sanne@docsociety.org.

Find available sessions here. Make yourself a good ☕ or 🫖 and join us!

Creative Non-Fiction Playlist

Interested in short creative non-fiction work? Looking for inspiration or insight into the wider short film landscape? Maybe you've applied to our Made of Truth Fund or are intending to do so in the future?

We've put together a selection of freely available, great short films that have been successful at international festivals, across forms and approaches. Worth a watch, and there are a few Made of Truth funded titles in there too!

Find them all here.
