Calendar – Past Event

CPH:FORUM is CPH:DOX's international financing and co-production event, dedicated to supporting creative, visual and auteur-driven films.

CPH:FORUM, which takes place November 7-9, 2012, is a three-day international financing event during CPH:DOX, dedicated to help facilitate the development and financing of creative and visually strong film projects. The Forum brings together key European and international financiers, industry professionals and producers intent on discovering the latest independent and innovative works in development from documentary filmmakers, fiction filmmakers and visual artists.

CPH:FORUM explores new, untested ways of breaking down conventional notions of genre. By inviting and connecting professionals from the worlds of nonfiction, fiction and visual art, we want to initiate new dialogues, open up new windows and enable new production and financing models.

The Forum has three main focus areas :

FICTIONONFICTION - challenging works in the ever-growing hybrid landscape between fiction and nonfiction

CINEMA - high-end theatrical feature-length documentaries with international distribution potential

ART - film projects conceptualized to be screened both within the institution of cinema and that of visual arts

CPH:FORUM offers:
 - Project presentations
 - Tailored one-on-one meetings with financiers and co-production partners
 - Seminars and case studies on new financing and distribution models
 - Networking, dinners and great fun
