We screen rough cuts of films by local and visiting documentary filmmakers and moderate a feedback session with the audience after each screening. These programs are open to the public. Special thanks to The Documentary Center at the George Washington University for sponsoring our Washington DC screenings.

“Docs in Progress has been like an extended family to the Gandhi Brigade. They have trained our young people, advised our staff, and opened the Documentary House for meetings and trainings. Their partnership in helping us prepare for filming in El Salvador was critical to the success of our most challenging project. And that is just the beginning.”
