About

The first Global Pitch in February 2021 was dedicated to investigative and current affairs projects, when our planet, our daily lives and our industry were being turned upside down by the pandemic. With the Global Pitch, Sunny Side of the Doc wanted to explore complex issues and challenges, and ensuring that the documentary genre plays a leading role in understanding the world around us and in inspiring change.

Sunny Side of the Doc is committed to gender parity in order to keep the documentary business thriving, to foster women’s empowerment both in front and behind the camera and to champion talents and new voices coming up on the international marketplace.
