From acclaimed features by maverick directors like the Coen brothers (BLOOD SIMPLE), Gregg Araki (THE DOOM GENERATION), and Kelly Reichardt (OLD JOY) to touchstone documentaries such as STREETWISE, PARIS IS BURNING, and HOOP DREAMS, this selection of highlights from across the festival’s history celebrates its ongoing dedication to bold, personal storytelling from outside the mainstream.
