Join us for a special presentation of the BSDFF 2021 film competitions as we present the nominees and the winners of the Best Feature, Best Short, Best Mini-Doc and the Big Sky Award!


BSDFF is a competitive event with four award categories that spotlight superior works in documentary filmmaking. The categories are Best Feature, Best Short, Best Mini-Doc (films under 15 minutes) and the Big Sky Award for films that artistically honor the character, history, tradition and imagination of the American West. An Oscar-qualifying event, winners in the Best Short and Best Mini-Doc categories qualify for Academy Award nomination in the Short Documentary category. Selected by a jury of filmmakers and documentary professionals, winners in each category receive a $500 cash prize.
