Vision du Réel organises for the seventh time in succession Pitching du Réel, a coproduction event dedicated to feature-length documentaries. 

Since its creation, the purpose of Pitching du Réel is to help launch projects with artistic ambition and potential in the principal distribution markets. It is intended for young as well as experienced and acknowledged filmmakers.

About 20 projects will be presented publicly then discussed in round-table sessions and in one-to-one meetings. The round-table discussions take place in the presence of professionals including commissioning editors, producers, and distributors active in national and international markets or in digital promotion, as well as a variety of financial partners: Public and private institutions, NGOs, foundations or private individuals investing in documentary projects.
