Welcome to the 7th annual Big Eddy Film Festival! This year we’re putting the focus on nonfiction filmmaking. Documentary work is stronger than ever. As storytellers take the genre into new territory, both visually and structurally, we’re thrilled to host some of the most exciting new documentaries coming out this year.

Why is nonfiction filmmaking experiencing a boom in 2018? Is it greater accessibility to equipment? Is it improved distribution outlets for documentary through movie streaming services? Are we as a culture becoming more invested in the concept of truth? Whatever the reasons, we’re fortunate to have so many amazing docs in this year’s lineup.

We kick off the weekend with the world premiere of “The Art and Times of Frosty Myers” about the American sculptor who transformed the notion of what is art, sculpture, and furniture. We continue with the New York premiere of “306 Hollywood” and the award winning doc “Minding the Gap.” The festival closes with “Dark Money,” structured like a political thriller, but it’s all real.

Expanding the conversation about ‘truth’ and ‘fiction’ in cinema, check out our two scripted narrative films that use real life as their inspiration: “Keep the Change” and “Eve.” And don’t miss our shorts, panel discussions, and parties.
