CPH:DOX Chief and Head of Industry on Their Program, Standing Up for Values and Sticking Together (EXCLUSIVE)


More than 355 decision-makers and 90 broadcasters/platforms have signed up for the major documentary industry showcase.

Stronger, bigger than ever amid global tensions, this year’s industry arm of the prestigious CPH:DOX international documentary festival will be showcasing an exceptional program in Copenhagen between March 23-28. How hard was it to find extra coin for this event?Kiilgaard: Sadly, many international festivals have had budget cuts due to a reduction in public funding, but our own resources have been stable over the last few years, and we’ve even had a minor increase from the Danish Film Institute to support our growth. Fortunately, we had great partners in the Danish Producers Association, which helped us open some doors, as well as our curator Mark Edwards [former head of international co-productions, Arte France, and director of documentaries in Europe, Netflix].
