Welcome, to Beirut International Documentary Festival, the Arab world’s first festival dedicated exclusively to documentary films. Since its inception in 1999, DocuDays has become a dynamic platform for showcasing thought-provoking Arab and international documentaries. The festival’s mission is to bridge the gap between audiences and documentary cinema, celebrating the art of storytelling through screenings, workshops, panels, and the region’s first co-production forum.
