The Oscar race for Documentary Feature Films has been narrowed down to 15 films.

I've had the great opportunity of seeing a handful of the documentary's during the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year. This is an incredibly tough race for the Oscar Nomination. Here is your list of the 15 films still in consideration in the category of Documentary Feature Film. 

"Art and Craft," Purple Parrot Films
"The Case against 8," Day in Court
"Citizen Koch," Elsewhere Films
"CitizenFour," Praxis Films

The Academy's Documentary Branch will now compile a shortlist in a preliminary round of voting. Branch members will narrow the list of 15 down to 5 nominees that will be announced January 15th. 

Best of luck to all of the filmmakers still in consideration.
