The Documentary Film Group, better known as Doc Films, is a student-operated film society at the University of Chicago. The society is on record with the Museum of Modern Art in New York as the longest-running organization of its kind in the United States. The organization was founded in December 1940 as the International House Documentary Film Group, though its antecedents stretch back to 1932. Initially the group focused on "the realist study of our time via nonfiction film," but the documentary alone could not sustain the organization; within a few years, the group’s programs expanded to include fiction and experimental films, a mixture that it maintains to this day. Doc presently screens films every night of the academic year at the Max Palevsky Cinema, located in Ida Noyes Hall on the University's campus.
