KLRF has a strong focus on documentary filmmaking. The organization produces and distributes documentaries that raise awareness about the challenges faced by people affected by disasters and other emergencies. KLRF also works to support other documentary filmmakers who are working on projects that promote social justice and human rights.

The Documentary Awareness Play/ Videos page on the KLRF website features a selection of documentaries that have been produced by the organization or that have been supported by KLRF. The page also includes articles and interviews about documentary filmmaking and the role of documentaries in social change.
