    The Pitching Forum
    Documentary in Europe's pitching forum is looking for documentary projects developed for international co-production. 21 projects will be selected to participate. The participants will be required to attend a 3-day preparation lab on July 6-8 with the opportunity to re-write the project presentation under guidance from international tutors. The pitching of the projects will be on July 9-10 in front of an international panel of financiers. The participation fee is: first participant with project 300 Euro, second participant/observer 250 Euro. A 20% reduction is given to members of EDN, doc.it & F.E.R.T.

    Match Making
    The Match Making session gives an opportunity for authors and directors to introduce themselves to the documentary world and present their ideas at a very early stage. The 15 selected filmmakers will present their documentary ideas to European producers and other professionals. The aim is to create a link and common language between newcomers and established documentary makers. The selected documentary ideas will be introduced in a special Match Making session. A preliminary introduction will be given to all participants. The price for participation with a project is 200 Euro, second participant/observer 160 Euro. A 20% reduction is given to members of EDN, doc.it & F.E.R.T.
