Our festival centre Kunsthal Charlottenborg<\/strong>, presented together with Normann Copenhagen, will host talks, a VR Cinema, interactive installations and of course the popular Social Cinema<\/strong>.<\/p>\n We look forward to welcoming you! And remember if there are any events that tickle your curiosity, you probably shouldn’t wait too long to secure your ticket.<\/p>\n THIS YEAR\u2019S PROGRAMME IS DEVOTED TO WOMEN<\/strong><\/p>\n We kick off the festival with the world premiere of Marie Skovgaard’s ‘The Reformist<\/a>‘ and dedicates the evening to the women\u2019s liberation movement among ethnic minorities. Together with a number of other international film festivals, we are signing the new ’50\/50 2020 Charter’, which calls for new times in the industry and more women in front of and behind the camera. We are already working to live up to the charter with 45% of the 66 films in competition directed by one or more female directors.<\/p>\n Parallel to the festival from March 25-29 runs CPH:INDUSTRY hosting the financing and co-production market CPH:FORUM<\/a>, the work-in-progress section CPH:WIP<\/a>, the pitching event Science Film Forum<\/a>, the 5-day conference in partnership with Documentary Campus CPH:CONFERENCE<\/a> and the screening market CPH:MARKET<\/a>.<\/p>\n FIVE INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION PROGRAMMES<\/strong><\/p>\n No less than 43 world premieres, 18 international premieres and 5 European premieres can be found in the five official competition programmes, bringing together the best Danish and international documentaries. The five competitions<\/a>, which have individual international juries, are:<\/p>\n DOX:AWARD<\/a>, the festival’s main competition for feature-length films. 12 films are nominated for the award. In addition, we are also presenting the Politiken Audience Award<\/a>, where 10 films from the overall programme compete for the audience’s votes.<\/p>\n NEW TIMES, NEW THEMES<\/strong><\/p>\n From Time’s Up and Yellow vests to climate teenagers. All over Europe, autonomous and micropolitical movements are emerging, and they are inevitably making an appearance in this year’s festival line-up with films such as ‘Democracy LTD<\/a>‘ and ‘Young and Alive<\/a>‘.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s major theme is Europe. The cut-off date for Brexit will be during CPH:DOX. When the festival concludes, we are faced with a new European reality. Where is the new unity, and what do Europe’s opportunities and future look like? These are some of the questions we will examine in the thematic focus ‘Europe<\/a>‘ and in the exhibition Europa Endlos<\/a> at the festival centre, Kunsthal Charlottenborg.<\/a><\/p>\n The programme is also focusing on fact and science. At a time where our approach to facts is particularly challenged, science as an institution is an essential basis for our common understanding of the world. Therefore, we have expanded the Science programme, CPH:SCIENCE<\/a>, which is supported by the Lundbeck Foundation, and teamed up with a number of Denmark’s greatest minds, who will tell us and show films about everything from the Anthropocene era<\/a> via humanoid robots<\/a> to the dark matter of outer space<\/a>.<\/p>\n The festival also zooms in on art and on autofiction. The programme features films about Elena Ferrante<\/a>, Faust<\/a> and Edvard Munch<\/a>, and appearances by Karl Ove Knausg\u00e5rd and Alexander Tovborg<\/a>. The new programme section \u2018Fiction for Real<\/a>\u2019 will present 11 new agenda-defining and aesthetically innovative feature films, which extend beyond the boundaries of fiction and into reality. This will happen in conversations between the directors and a cast of Danish artists and authors.<\/p>\n AN EVENING WITH…<\/strong><\/p>\n We also introduce a new section of five exclusive evenings with guest stars who lend their thoughts on this year’s topics with film screenings, talks and performative interventions. The influential Chinese artist Ai Weiwei\u00a0<\/a><\/strong>focus on the consequences of Europe’s refugee policy. Philosopher Srecko Horvat<\/a> and actress and activist Pamela Anderson <\/a>will turn the spotlight on Europe and the new democratic movements. The American band Animal Collective<\/a> will\u00a0perform a call for action to save the coral reefs, while Natasha Khan – also known as Bat for Lashes<\/a> – introduces us to the cinematic vision behind her ground-breaking work in music and visual art. New Order and Suede<\/a> frontmen Bernard Sumner and Brett Anderson reveal the realities behind the distinct sounds of Manchester and London.<\/p>\n \u2018An Evening With\u2019<\/a> is presented in collaboration with Normann Copenhagen, who again this year is the festival’s main sponsor, and who will transform Kunsthal Charlottenborg into a true festival mansion.<\/p>\n JUSTICE, HITS, MUSIC, CONCERTS<\/strong><\/p>\n CPH:DOX 2019 also offers political films about property speculators<\/a>, Mexico’s dark sides<\/a>, art in North Korea <\/a>and the consequences of China’s one-child policy in the Sundance winner ‘One Child Nation’<\/a>. Audience can also experience a true docu-thriller about the Panama papers<\/a>, and veterans\u2019 encounters between Werner Herzog and Mikhail Gorbachev<\/a>, Emir Kusturica and Uruguay’s president Mujica<\/a>, and Errol Morris and Steve Bannon<\/a>, and discover the latest work by auteurs from Agn\u00e8s Varda<\/a> to Roberto Minervini<\/a> as well.<\/p>\n With support from the Dreyer Foundation, CPH:DOX is once again focusing on the relationship between the individual and the state, security and liberty, in the programme series Justice<\/a>, with films about the Danish deportation centre Sj\u00e6lsmark<\/a>, Watergate <\/a>and Srebrenica<\/a>.<\/p>\n The line-up also features new music documentaries about Johnny Cash<\/a>, PJ Harvey<\/a>, Michael Jackson<\/a> and Leonard Cohen<\/a>. More than 25 concerts are featured in this year’s festival programme, and the audience can among other things enjoy the Faroese Eiv\u00f8r<\/a>, Tunde Adebimpe<\/a> from TV on the Radio, the Syrian cult and party king Omar Souleyman<\/a> and a male choir with 30 singers from Norway.<\/a><\/p>\n And for those who really want to explore the depths of the documentary film industry, there are five full conference days<\/a>, moderated and presented by some of the top names of international documentary filmmaking.<\/p>\n CPH:DOX is all of this and much more.
