DocAviv, the Tel Aviv International Documentary Film Festival, scheduled to run between 21-30 May, has been tentatively postponed to 3-12 September, to run virtually at the same time as the Venice Biennale. Docustream, an online event, has been scheduled in it’s place, running through 23 May. It will feature Israeli premieres of documentaries made abroad, but no new locally made films. The Israeli selection is a retrospective selection from the 2019 festival.

Open to local audiences only, for a festival pass fee of ILS80 (US$22.68) or ILS10 (US$2.83) per individual title. All films can be viewed throughout the festival. However, once started, streaming is only available for 12 hours.
