Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival

Event Details

The annual Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival, showcasing more than 100 documentaries from around the world, is one of the longest running documentary film festivals in the U.S. Throughout the festival industry professionals, filmmakers, and celebrity guests will participate in workshops, panels, and discussion forums at venues like Low Key Arts and Maxwell Blade’s Theater of Magic.

**The historic Malco Theatre, which usually hosts the film celebration, was damaged in a storm the summer of 2012. While repairs are being made to the landmark building, the festival's center stage will be the Arlington Resort Hotel and Spa. Film screenings will take place on the hotel's second story. Special room rates are available at the Arlington for festival attendees and filmmakers.
