We love documentaries -- they're like reality TV, with a popcorn stand! So you know we're totally psyched for SF Indiefest's sixth annual Docfest, which starts up tomorrow and goes through next week!
Friday's big opening movie is "What Would Jesus Buy?", about the much-beloved street activist Reverend Billy and his Church Of Stop Shopping. Rev. Billy will be there in person with his message against overconsumption -- which we're sure is well worth spending the money you're going to save after you hear what he has to say!
Other movies include: Audience Of One (which we saw and enjoyed at the Int'l Film Fest, about a local church trying to shoot an action movie), a movie about miniature dachshund racing (!!!), a movie about how Michael Moore sucks (which you can see for free if you sign up here), and a documentary about Nick Drake, among many, many other options. Should be fun!
All movies screen at either the Big Roxie or the Little, and they're all $10. SFist will be there on the scene, so say hi if you see us and look here for our takes on the films!
