The Community Stories Film Festival, produced by Docs In Progress, spotlights contemporary and historical documentaries about our people, places, and events of Maryland, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia.

What began in 2010 as a one night showcase of Docs In Progress student work has grown to become a weekend series of public screenings of films by everyone from professional filmmakers to first-time adult and youth filmmakers, sharing stories from our local community. Each year, more than 500 people engage with filmmakers, those who have been filmed, and scholars at screenings, discussions and community workshops.

This year's Community Stories Film Festival will be a hybrid virtual and in-person event. Films will be available for screening online starting March 8 with live virtual Q&As on March 10-12. There will also be in-person events happening throughout the weekend at the Docs in Progress screening room in Silver Spring, MD.
