KODEX Documentary Film Festival is an initiative that brings the best of documentary cinema to a wider audience, defending a form of expression that is too rarely available on the big screen. The carefully-curated selection includes films that explore new ways of storytelling, tackle contemporary issues, and otherwise redefine the codes of documentary filmmaking. With a panorama of captivating films and engaging discussions, the festival offers a space for exchange and lively encounters.
KODEX also provides a structure for other initiatives like the Khalik Allah European Tour, which includes workshops, masterclasses, and exhibitions.
Our exciting programme including Q&As with many of the international filmmakers will be announced very soon!
