The Hamptons Take 2 Documentary Film Festival will honor Stanley Nelson with its Career Achievement Award at this year’s festival, which will take place at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor from Dec. 3 through Dec. 6.

Mr. Nelson’s films have earned five Primetime Emmys, two awards from the Sundance Film Festival, two Peabodys, and he is a MacArthur Foundation Fellow. While his films have explored a wide range of topics, he has been especially drawn to stories of the civil rights movement. His film “Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution” will be shown at this year’s festival.
