7th San Francisco International Documentary Festival (SF Docfest)

Docfest 2008

SF Indiefest presents the 7th San Francisco International Documentary Festival (SF Docfest 2008) which takes place October 17th through 30th at the Roxie Cinema in San Francisco and October 30th through November 6th at the Shattuck Cinemas in Berkeley. Here’s the full list of films & events and ticket information.

Legalized cat-shooting, The Price is Right, competitive balloon-twisting and Bigfoot—these are only a few of the subjects you’ll find explored at this year’s San Francisco International Documentary Festival (“DocFest”). Last year’s event was such a phenomenal success (over 5,000 tickets sold), they’ve expanded this year’s edition from two weeks to three—a fortnight’s run at the Roxie Theater (Oct. 17-30) followed by a one-week debut engagement at the Shattuck Cinemas in Berkeley (Oct. 30-Nov. 6). Now in its seventh year, DocFest 2008 will spotlight over 60 non-fiction films from around the world, encompassing a tremendous range of interests and issues.

SF Docfest 2008 will also be having an opening night Roller Disco Costume Party on October 24th at CELLspace in San Francisco.
