11th CUFF.Docs Documentary Film Festival

Synopsis:

Calgary Underground Film Festival Presents: CUFF.Docs Documentary Film Festival 2023


CUFF.Docs Documentary Film Festival showcases the best in non-fiction films. The event presented by the Calgary Underground Film Festival screens 15+ full-length features, as well as shorts, varying in subject, style and genres within the art form. The 11th event will take place from November 22-26, 2023 at Globe Cinema.

CUFF.Docs is the perfect place for anyone with the same intrigue and interest in factual content as we have. We’ll bring guests with the films, and plan for a unique CUFF-experience with the festival, and the films we present. We aim to promote art and encourage dialogue.

At CUFF.Docs, the quality of the film is what matters most; we don't book films to make political statements or advocate for particular issues. Instead, we hope to present a range of films that both confirm and challenge beliefs, promoting a sense of wonder and a healthy skepticism, and above all, that continue to advance the medium of documentary filmmaking.

The Calgary Underground Film Festival loves supporting independent film, and with a great team and passionate supporters, we elevate Calgary's cultural landscape.

4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days

Synopsis:

Calgary Cinematheque Presents: 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days (2007)


A Palme d'Or winner set during the last years of Communist rule in Romania, this is a nuanced suspense drama, with notes of dark humour, about friendship, loyalty, responsibility and decision-making. Centred around the procurement of an illegal abortion, the film creates a sense of real-time urgency, as two friends navigate the sinister world they must rely on and the obliviousness of those that set themselves apart from lower class concerns.

Genre: Drama 

Director: Cristian Mungiu
Stars: Anamaria Marinca, Laura Vasiliu, Vlad Ivanov             
Running time: 1 hr 53 min 
Rating: 18A

The Last Waltz

Synopsis:


Blackbyrd Myoozik Presents: The Last Waltz (1978)

Thanksgiving, 1976, San Francisco's Winterland: the Band performs its last concert after 16 years on the road. Some numbers they do alone, some songs include guest artists from Ronnie Hawkins (their first boss, when they were the Hawks) to Bob Dylan (their last, when as his backup and as a solo group, they came into their own). 

Scorsese's camera explores the interactions onstage in the making of music. Offstage, he interviews the Band's five members, focusing on the nature of life on the road. The friendships, the harmonies, the hijinks, and the wear and tear add up to a last waltz.

Genre: Music, Documentary 

Director: Martin Scorsese
Stars: Robbie Robertson, Muddy Waters, Neil Young               
Running time: 1 hr 57 min 
Rating: PG
