DC/DOX Festival


DC/DOX is a vibrant documentary film festival in the nation’s capital, celebrating bold voices, innovative visions, and dedicated truth-seekers in the art of non-fiction storytelling. This year’s festival runs from June 12–15.

In collaboration with DC/DOX, D.C. Area Educators for Social Justice is excited to offer a special discount for all educators—use the code DCASJ10 for 10% off any screening during the festival.

We’re also proud to partner on a special screening of The Librarians as part of the Teach Truth Day of Action, spotlighting the importance of truth-telling in education. In addition, we recommend checking out Classroom 4 and Speak—two powerful documentaries that invite conversation and connection both inside and outside the classroom.
