Discussion and debate
After each documentary, time will be set aside for debate, moderated by the organisers. During the debate, the jurors will interact dynamically and critically, expressing their point of view, problematising opinions and impressions from a technical and content-related point of view. There will be space to ask good questions, to listen to the other jurors and to initiate an initial reasoned reflection on documentary cinema. An exercise in awareness, responsibility and confrontation, before making the final assessment at the end of the day.
