Free and open to all, Sheffield DocFest's Alternate Realities exhibition showcases innovative non-fiction and immersive documentary in all forms.
This year’s Alternate Realities programme contains five unique projects. It encompasses exciting new work that invites audiences to morph into a bat, embrace the magical force of touch, reflect on our bodily existence in virtual worlds and piece together the powerful testimonies of Bedouin women fighting to preserve their culture and history.

VR Cinema
Also at Site Gallery, in Studio 1, will be the VR (Virtual Reality) Cinema. A wide-ranging programme highlighting cutting-edge technology and envelope-pushing creativity that you can explore and interact with using digital headsets.
The VR Cinema contains six projects. Dive into an ocean journey of magical realism, touch the fading memories of a retired Brazilian playwright, witness the resilience of an empowering Mexican artist, travel through a daughter's encounters with her father's aphasia, meditate in depictions of early life in the womb, and explore idealised safe spaces for the LGBTQIA+ communities of East Africa.
