Beuys is a 2017 German documentary film directed by Andres Veiel about the German artist Joseph Beuys. It was selected to compete for the Golden Bear in the main competition section of the 67th Berlin International Film Festival.[1]

Noting that the film emphasizes the "social conscience" behind Beuys's art, Glenn Kenny, writing for the New York Times, called it "an exhilerating portrait of a unique truth-teller".[2]
