Let’s keep in touch! Subscribe to our newsletter to hear about Cannes Docs top news:
This unique networking platform brings together all the major players in the field for a series of customized events including panels, talks, special screenings, workshops, opportunities to consult with experts, one-on-one meetings, tutoring, as well as selected showcases of docs-in-progress from all around the world (Norway, Mali, Germany, Kenya, Palestine, Chile, Algeria, Canada, Egypt, Argentina, Georgia, South Africa, Mexico, Burkina Faso, Tunisia…).
It’s also a B-to-B platform designed to connect you to other documentary professionals, promote your festival, company or organization, expand your network and develop your projects. To access Cannes Docs, head over to the Riviera, at the heart of the Marché du Film, and make sure you are registered for a standard Marché du Film badge.
Doc Day is the perfect opportunity to take a step back and reflect on how the documentary genre is continuously evolving as a marketplace, as an artistic form, and as a tool to raise awareness and drive global change. Doc Day also includes the Doc Lovers Mixer, on the beautiful Plage des Palmes, a not-be-missed networking cocktail bringing together the entire doc community over a shared drink and enthusiasm for docs. Doc Day ends with the screening of an exclusive creative documentary, presented by our partner, Acid.
Doc Day shines a spotlight on documentary film, raises awareness of the current challenges facing the genre, celebrates all of the documentaries in selection in Cannes, and brings together the entire doc community.
