The Wexner Center for the Arts at The Ohio State University is set to host the ninth annual Unorthodocs festival, a celebrated documentary film event, from November 6-10, 2025. This unique festival is known for presenting ten films on a single screen without overlaps, allowing attendees to engage directly with visiting filmmakers and artists while experiencing some of the year’s most impactful nonfiction cinema.
This year’s festival promises a diverse and dynamic selection, with films exploring themes of true crime, civic action, ecological issues, and local Ohio stories. A notable throughline in the selected works is the innovative use of archival footage. The festival aims to introduce audiences to films that often gain critical acclaim and awards recognition, with past selections including Oscar-nominated features.
