Docaviv is an international documentary film festival based in Tel Aviv.

Over time, the festival has spread its wings to the Galilee and the Negev.

Docaviv’s circle of friends holds the art of documentary cinema close to their hearts. More than 150 families support the ongoing activities of Docaviv throughout the year, and they are an important and essential contribution to the success of the festival.

Throughout the year, Docaviv’s friends are invited to special events including meetings with documentary filmmakers, opening night of the festival, pre-premiere screenings and access to films that we screen in theaters and online.

The support of Docaviv’s friends makes it possible for us to continue our challenging work. With their help, we are able to bring the best documentary films to the festival and provide an opportunity for Israeli filmmakers to showcase their work to various audiences.
