dok.incubator announces four selected projects for the 2022 edition of the Slovak workshop. The documentaries by young talented filmmakers cover topics of various issues in current Slovakia and should be ready for cinemas in 2023.
“This year's selection of the Slovak dok.incubator has brought impressive young talents who have a courage to shed a light on painful issues such as poverty, discrimination, inequality or fight for saving the unique cultural heritage of the Slovak National Gallery. They all address pains of Slovak society and political disfunctions in a powerful, amusing or breathtakingly poetical storytelling. We are proudly looking forward to working with these brave, critical, and gifted filmmakers in the upcoming months,” says Miriam Ryndová, the program manager of regional workshops.
Selected films for dok.incubator SK 2022:
- All Good Everywhere /SK/
Directed by Debora Pastirčáková and Martina Buchelová - Caution, Risk of Falling Exhibits! /SK/

The four selected projects will work with this year’s tutors, namely Vadim Jendreyko /CH/, François Sculier /FR/ and Alex Szalat /FR/ for the next seven months and will aim to be finished in 2023.
dok.incubator SK is one of the two regional workshops organized by dok.incubator. It works with Slovak productions and coproductions to sharpen their editing, marketing, and distribution strategy. Recently the workshop worked with films like The Sailor by Lucia Kašová (the Best Documentary at Rhode Island International Film festival), Lines by Barbora Sliepková (3 awards at IDFF Ji.hlava) or On Your Marks! by Maria Pinčíková (premiered at DOC Lisboa).
