Authors from all over the world are invited to submit their cell-phone-made documentary films (up to 15 minutes of running time). The films should in some way tackle the theme MY NEIGHBOUR IS AN EUROPEAN…
ZagrebDox Pro has chosen such a theme to mark the Republic of Croatia’s accession to the European Union in 2013, however authors are encouraged to use a broad approach to the theme and their neighbours (countries, peoples, ethnic groups, various groups of people, individuals etc).
The project aims at stimulating exchange of information in the documentary film community, helping participants to acquire successfully the skills required for finding international partners for co-financing of their films, enabling exchange of creative ideas and knowledge, providing an insight into contemporary documentary film production and expediting the networking of authors and producers of documentary projects with potential partners, financiers and documentary cinema operators.
