The Full Frame Documentary Film Festival is an annual international event dedicated to the theatrical exhibition of non-fiction cinema. Each spring Full Frame welcomes filmmakers and film lovers from around the world to historic downtown Durham, North Carolina for a four-day, morning to midnight array of over 100 films as well as discussions, panels, and southern hospitality. Set within a few city blocks, the intimate festival landscape fosters community and conversation between filmmakers, film professionals, and the public. The festival is a program of the Center for Documentary Studies, a non-profit, 501(c)(3), and receives support from corporate sponsors, private foundations, and individual donors whose generosity provides the foundation that makes the event possible. The Presenting Sponsor of the Festival is Duke University. Additional sponsors include: A&E IndieFilms, Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences, National Endowment for the Arts, Merge Records, Whole Foods, ilili Hospitality Group(parent company for Saladelia Cafe and Madhatter Bakeshop and cafe),and the City of Durham. The festival began in 1998 with no more than a few hundred patrons and has grown tremendously since then. Full Frame is now considered to be one of the premier documentary film festivals in the United States.〔http://blogs.indiewire.com/thompsononhollywood/full-frame-documentary-film-festival-chosen-as-oscar-qualifying-in-documentary-short-category〕 The Festival was founded by Nancy Buirski, a Pulitzer Prize-winning photo editor of the ''New York Times'' and documentary filmmaker.〔http://www.indyweek.com/indyweek/the-loving-story-is-full-frame-founder-nancy-buirskis-documentary-about-a-landmark-in-marriage-equality-and-civil-rights/Content?oid=2367960〕 Full Frame's mission is to serve the documentary form and its community by showcasing the contemporary work of established and emerging filmmakers.
