Documentaries at Depot

Uncover hidden gems and engage with the most urgent and engaging documentary filmmaking

Otherfield Film Festival Presents: New Documentary Filmmaking, 18 March – 30 July 2026

Insightful films from the most exciting voices in contemporary documentary filmmaking, all introduced by documentarian Jerry Rothwell.

Otherfield is a Sussex based documentary festival dedicated to re-imagining the possibilities of nonfiction filmmaking. As documentaries on the larger streaming platforms become increasingly narrowly focused on celebrity and crime, Otherfield aims to create a window into other kinds of nonfiction filmmaking: films of unheard voices and places, personal films, films made or distributed in innovative or experimental ways. For the last three editions Otherfield has partnered with Depot Cinema to bring films and filmmakers to the festival.
