Docaviv (Hebrew: דוקאביב), also known as the Tel Aviv International Documentary Film Festival, is the only film festival in Israel dedicated to documentary films, and the largest film festival in Tel Aviv. It is run by a non-profit organisation of the same name, founded in 1998. In recent years (to 2021) the festival has drawn an attendance of around 40,000.[1]
The festival has multiple sections, including a domestic Israeli Competition, an International Competition, and the non-competitive Panorama, Masters and Music sections.[2]
Docaviv Galilee is a five-day offshoot of the festival, held at Ma'alot-Tarshiha.[3]
