The Dallas–Fort Worth Film Critics Association Award for Best Documentary Film is an award presented by the Dallas–Fort Worth Film Critics Association (DFWFCA) to honor an outstanding documentary film.

History

Although the DFWFCA began handing out awards in 1990, they first added this category in 2002. To date, only three directors have earned the honor more than once: Davis Guggenheim (2006, 2010), Michael Moore (2002, 2004), Matthew Heineman (2017, 2023) and Morgan Neville (2013, 2018)
