American Documentary Film Festival


 

Named one of the world's Top 25 film festivals worth the entry fee by Movie Maker magazine in April 2013, and named one of the world's 5 coolest documen9tary film festivals by MovieMaker in November 2013, the American Documentary Film Festival's 11th annual event takes place  April 7-11, 2022. 


The Festival is located in the beautiful resort community of Palm Springs, California. Ideally located 2 hours east of Hollywood, this film mecca boasts a favorable viewing audience and a proven track record of supporting independent films. Already the largest documentary festival on the West Coast of the United States, we feature documentary features, doc shorts, and animated shorts from filmmakers around the world. Our main objective is to promote a world vision of film as seen through the eyes of the filmmaker.

VIDEO: A blast at Bombay Beach, East Jesus and Salvation Mountain

 

During the American Documentary Film Festival in Palm Springs we took a short car trip towards Salton Sea (the largest lake in California, 890km²) It is a shallow, saline, endorheic rift lake located directly on the San Andreas Fault. We headed then towards Bombay Beach, how could you resist to what that name inspires as a destination in the desert, we  went to the cheesy colorful Salvation Mountain and finished our trip at the nearby art garden East Jesus!. 
Full of amazing art surprises and improvised installations...soft planes, concept cars and more.
"Salvation Mountain is a literal man-made mountain 28 years in the making, covered in half a million gallons of latex paint. What started as a small monument made of dirt and painted cement became, over time, a sprawling adobe and hay-bale mountain complex, with peripheral structures made of telephone poles, tires, and car windows, as well as art cars and sculptures, all painted in a patchwork of stripes and color blocks of whatever paint was donated that week." — Aaron Huey, National Geographic
