"European perspectives for Italian documentary cinema
distribution, production and co-production".

Festival dei Popoli presents Doc at Work – Future Campus, an observatory from which it is possible to look towards the future of international documentary.

A project realized with the support of Fondazione Sistema Toscana, Toscana Film Commission and Cinema La Compagnia who believed in a project that aims to become a point of reference for the new generations of documentary film professionals.

In addition to the selection of 12 documentaries (available for free from 26 to 29 November on the platform PiùCompagnia), Doc at Work Future Campus also includes a training programme with filmmakers and professionals of this field and a panel focused on documentary production, in collaboration withCNA Toscana.

The Panel is dedicated to the European perspectives for the production of documentaries in Italy, with a special attention to possible financing strategies in a co-production perspective with foreign countries.
