For a third year in a row, we welcome emerging filmmakers and producers from all over the world, working on their first or second non-fiction feature and wishing to attend CPH:FORUM.
On top of access to all industry activities, including CPH:FORUM for a discounted price, we offer two full days of interactive sessions providing essential tools for new professional talent to join and thrive in the established industry ecosystem.
We dedicate two full days to emerging documentary professionals, on 23-24 March 2025, at the beginning of our Industry week, with the aim to introduce them to the inner workings of the professional community present at CPH:DOX.
With a bundle of curated sessions and interactive elements, this day aims to share know-how with newcomers on how they can best utilize their time in the following Industry days at CPH:DOX in terms of networking and other opportunities to further their non-fiction projects in development. While going through the nuts and bolts of the documentary industry from the perspective of new talent, the INTRO:DOX programme, gives an insight into mismatches between the traditional modus operandi of the industry and the rapidly changing contemporary culture.
