DOK.forum Marketplace

As the market for co-creation and co-production of DOK.fest München, the DOK.forum Marketplace invites around 40 selected, strong documentary film projects in the development stage to Munich every year. At pitching events, Roundtable Sessions and One-to-One Meetings the project teams meet around 200 experts such as commissioning editors, producers, funding representatives, distributors and sales agents.

The aim is to provide a forum for relevant ideas through targeted matchmaking, to give valuable feedback, enable new partnerships, and thus help the projects to get realised.

At the 40th DOK.fest München, the DOK.forum Marketplace will take place from 7 to 11 May 2025.
