ARE YOU READY FOR SOME TEENSY-TINY TRUTH BOMBS?
SCOOP is a new mini-doc fest brought to you by brilliant minds behind HUMP!, SLAY, and SPLIFF Film Festivals. Earlier this year, we asked readers to go out into our chaotic world and SEND US THEIR BEST SCOOPS on the issues they care about the most. After combing through hundreds of submissions, we've curated a fresh and international lineup of 11 documentary shorts, including reports on everything from trippy plants in Hong Kong to the fight to save historic community spaces. There are enough scoops to satisfy everyone's tastes, and we've made sure to include a lot of Pacific Northwest representation.
JOIN US as we celebrate the world and its truths this November with the inaugural SCOOP Film Festival, running NOW through November 30. GET YOUR TICKETS HERE! Wanna whet your appetite? Marvel at our teaser trailer and lineup below!
