Baltic Doc Rough Cut Showcase offers producers, directors, and creators of artistic, innovative projects with international potential the opportunity to present their projects to leading professionals in the documentary film industry. The showcase presents documentary projects nearing completion, looking to showcase their rough cut to potential sales, distribution, and exhibition stakeholders.
During the event, the three neighbouring Baltic countries share their points of view on different yet important themes. The projects cover a wide range of topics including the present and the future of planet Earth, mind-blowing possibilities of the human body, the poetic encounters in the borderland of wakefulness and sleep, the abuse behind the success of a young freestyle skier, life on the war front line in Ukraine and generational exploration of identity.
This event takes place at Gropius Bau Cinema and afterwards within the networking area of Business Lounge at Gropius Bau.
