This year’s edition of the ZagrebDox Pro training programme consists of a preparatory workshop intended for chosen creative documentary projects at different stages of development and production, a Pitching Forum presenting the projects to the public, potential financiers and distributers, and International Collaboration Day for networking between experts from the documentary world, project teams and other film professionals.

The aim of the workshop, set on 22-26 February, and mentored by Leena Pasanen and Stefano Tealdi, is to provide support to participants who are still shaping their projects and provide them with adequate knowledge and skills needed to find international co-financiers. After the preparations, the participants will present their projects to a panel consisting of TV editors, film fund representatives and distributers at a Pitching Forum scheduled for Thursday, 25 February, 10am to 2.30pm, at theatre 5 of Cineplexx Kaptol Centre. The Forum is open to the public.
