) has announced its full program, which includes some 200 new films and a whopping 76 world premieres.
“A documentary film festival is not only a celebration of cinema, it is also an opportunity to critically reflect on reality, to engage in democratic dialogue and to discuss how our views of the world have consequences,” artistic director Niklas Engstrøm says. “Right now, our thoughts are first and foremost with the people in Ukraine, a sovereign European state unlawfully invaded by an autocratic regime.
In addition to the Dox:Award, the festival’s other international competitions are the New:Vision Award for experimental and artists’ films, the F:ACT Award for films spanning investigative journalism and documentary, the Nordic:Dox Award for Nordic documentaries and the Next:Wave Award for emerging filmmakers and artists.
These include debut features “Under the Sky Shelter” by Chile’s Diego Acosta, described by programmer Mads Mikkelsen as “a mesmerizingly beautiful black-and-white 16mm film set in the Chilean mountains with dreamy flashes of color and no dialogue,” and “Hide and Seek,” a fast-paced film from Naples about a family across three generations struggling to break from the cycle of crime – “easily one of the most exciting films this year,” according to Mikkelsen.
