SF DocFest is an annual festival devoted to documentary cinema. Since 2001, this event has brought the most weird and wonderful aspects of real life to the big screen.
"What makes the scrappy San Francisco Documentary Film Festival a treasure to SF Bay Area filmgoers is its willingness to take that extra step to show films a little more out there than bog standard documentaries." - Peter Wong, Broke Ass Stuart
“Docfest offers a zippy blend of politics, music, social issues and youth-oriented subcultures. The good news is that DocFest promotes documentaries as a vibrant, irreverent form of entertainment to a younger demographic, blasting the notion of educational films to smithereens. There’s no room for anything approximating — watch it, I’m about to blaspheme – the obsessively measured and utterly somnambulant musings of Ken Burns.” – Michael Fox, KQED
“Since its inception, DocFest (May 31-June 15 at the Roxie and the Vogue, with opening night at Alamo Drafthouse) has compiled a colorful scrapbook of genuine characters in contrast to the current events survey, educational seminar or social-issue forum that defines many documentary series… There are one or two people in Off the Charts you won’t soon forget, which could be said about nearly every film in DocFest. That’s one of the pleasures of scrapbooks.” – also Michael Fox, KQED
Michael Fox just loves DocFest, here's another:
"Welcome to SF DocFest, the beloved annual compendium of odd, unusual nonfiction films from every nook and corner of our bizarro country and beyond. Waving off the pedigreed, high-profile docs that premiere at Sundance, get theatrical releases (or these days, national virtual releases) and chart a course for the Academy Awards, SF DocFest’s programmers opt for poignant, intimate works that miss the mainstream by dint of their iconoclasm and/or lack of a marketing hook." -KQED
"This week brings the kickoff to the 20th edition of SF Docfest, the rapidly-becoming-venerable nonfiction showcase that nonetheless continues to put the fun in documentary cinema appreciation. While other such showcases tend to be soberly issue-themed, focusing on the environment, activism, or some such, Docfest pursues—though not exclusively—colorful human interest stories, musician profiles, and other subjects on which there will not be a class quiz afterward." - Dennis Harvey, 48Hills

Le festival du film LA MIRADA TABÚ souhaite inciter les artistes et les créateurs à montrer leur point de vue sur le concept « tabou », qui est vaste et varié, englobant les rêves, l'inconscient, le monde mental et les fantômes qui les peuplent, le mystère, la magie, voire la réalité inédite, le non-dit, « les vêtements suspendus », sur le lieu de travail, émotionnel, familial, vital... à partir d'une vision aussi polyédrique que la pensée humaine. : décontracté, humoristique, dramatique, onirique... toujours dans le respect de toutes les manières de penser et grâce à la créativité.
LA MIRADA TABÚ lance une invitation à mettre en lumière le monde personnel et non transférable de chaque créateur, qui, comme nous avons pu le constater tout au long de l'histoire de l'art et du cinéma, à travers de grands noms du cinéma mondial, se connecte à l'imaginaire le plus profond, inconnu et insaisissable des spectateurs
