About Doc’n Roll—

Doc’n Roll began life in 2013, when we launched the UK’s Music & Arts Documentary Film Festival as an arts discovery film fest, convinced it was time to show some love to outlier music, arts and subculture documentaries that were all too often ignored by risk-averse film programmers.

Ten years on, via our now UK-wide annual festival, one-off events and special screenings, we provide our audience with the opportunity to watch these killer documentaries in ace cinemas, as they were designed to be watched: LOUD.

In 2017, owing to strong demand from both filmmakers and audiences, Doc’n Roll expanded to include a boutique UK event cinema, distribution, and world sales service. We excel in finding theatrical, non-theatrical and direct-to-consumer routes to market for independent music documentaries across the UK and Europe.

In 2019, we launched another UK first, Doc’n Roll TV, our worldwide on-demand streaming platform that allows us to present a host of new and classic music documentaries to viewers at home.
