The #HSDFF May Fundraiser is off and running! Please give today and help us reach our ambitious goal of $40,000! Every donation is matched!

The thrill of sharing documentary films with Central Arkansas audiences is so satisfying. And it's at least as satisfying as introducing Hot Springs and its enthusiastic audiences to filmmakers from all over the world.

We're heading towards our 35th festival, and we want to do it again for at least 35 more years.

Give at our link in bio today!
