Documentary Festival CPH:DOX Unveils Competition Lineups With 56 World Premieres


Documentary festival CPH:DOX has unveiled the titles in its competition sections, which includes 71 films.

Niklas Engstrøm, artistic director of CPH:DOX, said: “The times we live in are increasingly marked by conflict, chaos, and cynicism, leaving little room for the visionary or the poetic. Whether set in Ukraine, Mozambique, America, or China, the nominated films in this year’s program stand as a defense of the role of poetry and art in the world.” Mads K. Mikkelsen, head of program of CPH:DOX, said the competition lineup “truly represents documentary as an art form made for the cinema.” He added: “CPH:DOX is about celebrating documentaries and the people who make them, and programming this year’s festival has been a journey rich with discoveries.”
