CPH:DOX Sets Full 2024 Lineup With Thematic Focus On Gaza And World Conflicts


Musician Pete Doherty will attend the festival for a screening of 'Peter Doherty: Stranger in My Own Skin.'

The event will take place on March 18 at Bremen Theater, when he and the film’s director Katia de Vidas – who became Doherty’s wife over the ten years she followed him with her camera – openly discuss the substance abuse that has shadowed his entire career. Other films about Israel and Palestine include Larissa Sansour and Søren Lind’s Familiar Phantoms (world premiere) and Jonathan Schaller and Philipp Schaeffer’s Silent Night (world premiere), alongside new films like No Other Land, Bye Bye Tiberias, There was Nothing here before and Erin Axelman and Sam Eilertsen’s controversial Israelism. In a world increasingly marked by polarization, we must be willing to challenge our own established truths and engage in meaningful dialogues with those holding different opinions and perspectives,” said Artistic Director Niklas Engstrøm.
