An all-day-long celebration and exploration of documentary cinema, in all its creative aspects & industry ramifications, as well as in the infinite ways the documentary genre questions and echoes our lives & shifting realities.
Doc Day offers a carefully curated line-up of keynotes, masterclasses and panel discussions with today’s most inspiring documentary filmmakers and professionals, followed by the Docs-in-Progress Awards Ceremony and our Doc Day Mixer — a festive, love-filled cocktail designed to bring together the entire documentary community in Cannes.
Finally, as tradition has it, Doc Day ends with a special closing screening, presented in partnership with ACID Cannes, renowned for its passion for documentary cinema.
