EFM DocSalon & Archive Market: Feb 13-19, 2025

As for the last two years you will find all documentary activities within the EFM Industry Sessions conference and networking programme as well as an exclusive meeting point for the documentary industry in the Documentation Centre for Displacement, Expulsion, Reconciliation, just a three-minute walk from Gropius Bau. The selected talk formats will focus on highly topical developments in the documentary landscape. Our tailored and pre-scheduled meeting formats Meet the Festivals and Consult the Experts offer the possibility to meet and consult with our international guests, many of them from the documentary landscape.

Consultations & One-on-Ones

CONSULT THE EXPERTS

Our consultations facilitate discussions between participants with projects at all stages and key-figures from the following fields:

  • Funding / Packaging
  • Impact Producing / Marketing / Press & PR
  • (Co-) Production
  • Sales / Distribution

Each hour-long session connects you and 4 others with one industry expert.

MEET THE FESTIVALS

Forge connections with top festival programmers and market representatives, discuss current projects and gain insights into the programming and editorial focus of the respective festival. You can book up to three of the 7-minute long one-on-one meetings.
