The impetus for the Take 2 Documentary Film Festival of the Hamptons now in its 6th year, is to create high-visibility, theatrical venues for talented documentary filmmakers whose works deserve screen time, a second cut or "take 2," as they say in the moviemaking business.

HT2FF was founded and run by documentary filmmakers whose passion for the genre celebrates and appreciates what it takes to produce a memorable doc. Our mission is to build community around the art of visual storytelling.
