A documentary film held on Ishigaki Island and Shonan, which are surrounded by the sea and nature. Documentary films have the power to focus on subjects that are hard to focus on, highlight social issues, and lead to solutions. Each director has a wide variety of ways of expression. It has been held since 2019 as a film festival that supports creators who pursue expression regardless of age, gender, and nationality, and looks at society from a new angle. Films from directors and others who have a track record of winning Emmy Awards and Grand Prix at other film festivals from Japan and abroad have been entered.
