FOCAL and VdR-Industry present: “Where is the audience? A dialogue on the distribution of documentary films on the big and small screen – an industry event”.

As a response to the Documentary and Audiovisual Forum that took place during the last edition of Visions du Réel, FOCAL is organizing, in collaboration with VdR-Industry, the event: “Where is the audience? A dialogue on the distribution of documentary films on the big and small screens – an event for the industry”.

At a time when audiences for Swiss documentaries are becoming increasingly scarce and the number of films being produced remains high, all in the context of a health crisis, FOCAL will propose a day of reflection on this issue.

This event aims to bring together a large number of professionals working in different sectors of the Swiss film industry. It is now possible to register to participate in this day of reflection!
