ABOUT

CPH:DOX is the third biggest documentary film festival in the world. Each year, the festival presents a selection of more than 200 films and welcomes 2 000 industry professionals, journalists, and students. The festival takes place in Copenhagen and focuses on three main tracks: science, society, and art.  

The festival selects films for six international competitions as well as several non-competitive sidebars. Dox:Award is the international main competition, The Next:Wave is dedicated to emerging filmmakers; F:ACT Award is dedicated to films in the field between documentary filmmaking and investigative journalism and New:Vision presents ground-breaking experiments in the area between documentary and artistic reflection. 

CPH:DOX also offers professional seminars, a screening market, and the international financing and co-production event CPH:FORUM, as well as the film production program CPH:LAB.
