Projects
12TH DOK Co - Pro Market
The 12th DOK Co-Pro Market will welcome 35 projects
from 31 countries to take part in more than 750 individual meetings over the course of two days. This year
we have a mini-focus on France, welcoming a selection of projects and producers from the largest national
industry in Europe. 19 of the projects are from upand-coming talents, while a total of 18 projects are
directed by women.
We are very excited to grant our first development
prize together with our partners EWA – European Women’s
Audiovisual Network.
We continue to passionately believe, despite tough
times for the financing of feature-length creative
documentaries, that cross-border collaboration is the
only way forward and that the work of independent producers forms the backbone of the European
audiovisual industry.

DOK Neuland
DOK Hackathon
DOK Neuland is our public exhibition for alternative and
new ways of storytelling. The visitor is in the center of
each experience and decides what his or her journey might
entail. In two 360° films, the viewer chooses an individual focus. Delve even deeper into an extensive alternate
reality and shape the experience actively in one of two
Virtual Reality experiences. Additionally try a webdoc
and a scrolling graphic novel, each displaying alternative methods of content delivery.
We thank all the supporters and especially ARTE
for the ongoing support of this new installment of
DOK Neuland.
DOK Neuland guided tours
Each day, one of the exhibited works is presented during
a guided tour by its creators. There will be time to learn
about the creation process, listen to some unique stories
or just simply have a Q&A session. Meet the people
behind each work!

DOK Neuland is part of

programme and realised
in cooperation with
the SLM .
Creatives are again taking part in our three-day
DOK Hackathon. We selected filmmakers, designers and
coders amongst others to take part in this intense
experience. Beginning on Monday before the festival
starts, these eager artists will sit together, brainstorm
ideas, from teams, design a concept, get serious, get help
from tutors, scratch some wild ideas, brainstorm some
more, drink coffee, hack, code, cry laugh, enjoy, sleep,
panic, refocus and finally develop an awesome prototype in just 72 hours, all the while being encouraged by
mentors and facilitators of our partners from !DROPS.
But wait, there is more…
Prototype Jam
The concept is slightly different here. First ideas are
already brought to the table, the general outlines already
written. So all the available time goes directly into the
actual realization of those ideas. Facilitated by our partners
from !DROPS, the goal is to work together to create a
market-pitchable project. The Prototype Jam is realized
with additional support by !F Lab.
Both workshops unite under one premise: there is little
time to create something amazing. Nevertheless, this
is exactly where the fun comes in: to design and create
with limited means is always a rewarding and illuminating challenge. We thank the Interactive Media Foundation
and Transmedia Mitteldeutschland for their
indispensable support.

DOK Hackathon :
Pitch and Drinks
DOK Exchange
After three days of intense work during the DOK
Hackathon and the Prototype Jam, there is one last effort
to be made. Each group will present their project
during a pitch to the audience and an international jury.
What will it be? A glorious mating of a webdoc and
webgame? A Virtual Reality experience which profoundly
alters your perception of reality? Maybe it will be
something entirely different and new. One thing is for
sure: you will be surprised to see what eager artists
can accomplish in just three days of intense work. In a
fast-paced procedure, we expect to see around six
different projects, presented to a curious audience and
jury alike. After three days of (probably) little sleep,
we would like to welcome the artists in a friendly and
network-centered atmosphere, to bask in the glory
of their accomplishments.
Come early and save yourself a seat in the front row, we
expect it to be crowded and extremely entertaining.
The best part of it? After the presentation, there will be
drinks and snacks, kindly hosted by DREFAbrik!

Meet the Training Initiatives
DOK Leipzig collaborates with many
independent and Creative Europesupported training initiatives
designed to help you refine your
skills and increase your professional network. Each has a specific
selection criteria and focus and –
just like your film – it’s deeply beneficial to understand their idiosyncrasies and create a strategy for your
applications.
Get to know the professionals
behind these organisations. You can
meet representatives from Documentary Campus, BDC Discoveries,
DOK.Incubator, EAVE, EsoDoc,
Ex Oriente and ifLab.
Developing Your Festival Strategy
Dr. Grit Lemke and Ina Rossow will
exchange ideas, tips and experiences
on planning a festival strategy for
your film. Never before has it been
so important to get the strategy
right in order to monetise your film.
At the end of the session we
will have a large selection of festival
programmers for you to network
with including Berlinale, HotDocs,
Cinéma du Réel, Krakow Film
Festival, Karlovy Vary International
Film Festival, Golden Apricot
Film Festival, DocsBarcelona, DMZ
Docs, ZagrebDox, Sarajevo Film
Festival to name but a few. More
shall confirm closer to the festival.
VOD a-b-c
TVOD, SVOD, NVOD, premium
VOD, catch up TV, the list goes on.
The number of VOD platforms
and subscription models worldwide
is expanding at speed, but at
what price? Is VOD your friend or
your foe? It certainly is an exciting time to be a consumer but what’s
in it for the creators and where
does one start? Can your film thrive
in the VOD space? What is the
role of the sales agent, distributor
and content aggregator? A session on the lessons learned working
with the VOD market and how
you can apply them in your online

Animadoc Case Studies
No Filmmaker is an Island
ARTE Case Studies
For the past 20 years, DOK Leipzig has been closely
following developments in animated documentary filmmaking and presenting innovative ideas and projects
in this area. With our Animadoc Case Studies we want
to raise professionalism and audience awareness of the
great potential that lies in the combination of different
techniques and genres. This year’s panel presents
case studies from different outstanding projects: Remo
Scherrer’s Whatever the Weather is a very moving short
about alcohol addiction and child neglect. The film Oscar
by Marie-Josée Saint-Pierre is a portrait of the pianist
Oscar Peterson. The filmmaker is experienced in animated
documentaries and mixes archival material and
animation sequences to form a strong visual statement.
With Chris the Swiss the director Anja Kofmel will
present work in progress on her animated documentary
feature which tackles the topic of Swiss mercenaries by investigating a very personal family story.

In 2017 ARTE will celebrate 25 years of creative programming for audiences across Europe and the globe.
Despite this long legacy of public broadcasting, the
channel is still looking forwards: experimenting with
filmmakers and storytellers in order to reach new
audiences, and developing content not just for broadcast
television but other media including the web. Life To
Come – featured in the Official Selection for DOK Leipzig
in both cinemas and our DOK Neuland exhibition space –
is an example of the bi-media production strategies
currently being explored by the broadcaster. But ARTE
also offers many other slots that may give you the
opportunities to make multiple versions of your films
also for different international markets and engage
new talent or business models. We’ll look at the
ZDF/ARTE co-production John Berger or The Art of
Looking on the relationship between commissing
editor and creative producer.

Know your Archive Rights
The Leth Legacy
To whom does our collective audiovisual past belong?
And how much should we pay to access it? Film archives
globally are suffering from government budget cuts,
and some governments have already carelessly privatized
their collections. Changing borders, political alliances
and the digital revolution have created new challenges
for producers and self-proclaimed accidental archivists.
Three professionals working in this area will discuss
the high political stakes and fascinating world of archive
research and rights negotiation. Not to be missed!

family from Denmark takes over the stage but DOK
Leipzig is proud to try. Jørgen Leth, the leading figure
in experimental documentary films hosts for the very
first time a session with his daughter Karoline Leth, the
multi-award winning producer of documentaries
and drama series, and his son Asger Leth, a director of
star-studded Hollywood films.
Three approaches to filmmaking, two approaches to
follow in the footsteps of your famous father.

How to Make a DCP With Open Source Software
Bill Morrison
Self-distribution is a tricky business for animation and
documentary professionals alike. But many producers and filmmakers are taking their destiny into their
own hands, often reaching wide audiences outside
the traditional markets. But the best-researched and
executed marketing strategy can unravel fast if you
don’t have the technical know-how and skill to actually
deliver the physical film for screening. And if you’re
planning to show your film on the big screen, chances
are you’ll need a DCP to get the very best quality.
Are your tech skills the only thing between you and
an indie release of your film? Don’t have a spare
10.000 € around for a professional to convert files for
you?
Paul Müller-Hahl, technical coordinator at DOK Leipzig,
will take you step-by-step through the process of creating your own DCP using open source software. This
is a not-to-miss session for all independent filmmakers at DOK Leipzig, students and veterans alike!

For Bill Morrison the filmstrip is an actor. It represents
the physical embodiment of cinema. Like an actor,
it conveys dreams and memories. It also has a natural
lifespan that shows signs of decay towards its end.
Chemical processes give rise to bubbles and crystals in
the film emulsion and allow new, ghostly visual worlds
to emerge haphazardly. Damage done to the fragile
material tells stories that were not contemplated in the
original film.
For over 20 years the New York-based filmmaker has
been dedicating himself to this orphaned, unnoticed
“body of film” with all its personal traces of aging. He
has found a new way of presenting silent film dramas
and documentary footage from the early days of cinema
in collaboration with important figures of contemporary music – Michael Gordon, Gavin Bryars, Steve Reich,
Kronos Quartett, et al. His artistic work was honoured
with a comprehensive exhibition at the MoMA in New
York in 2014/15.
In his master class Bill Morrison will provide an
insight into found footage research, present the living
being that is the physical exposure holder, and explain, using examples from his own films, that special
moment when the material itself becomes the
narrator. DOK Leipzig will be showing Bill Morrison’s
masterpiece Decasia as part of Disobedient Images.

Marina Razbezhkina
DOK and Anima Talks
Of the four programmes in the Homage Marina Razbezhkina,
one is tailor-made for her students. For Razbezhkina
is not just a scriptwriter and director; since 2008 she has
been head of the Moscow School of Documentary
Film and Documentary Theatre in Moscow, which she
founded together with Mikhail Ugarov. There she
has established a school that is unpretentious and nonhierarchical, also in the aesthetic sense. She fosters
the talents of young people who are often new to the
profession and come from the provinces. The filmmaking she teaches is direct and personal, shot with a
handheld camera and daring to enter the “zone of
the snake”. This is what she calls that dangerous sphere
of influence in which the protagonists move, and into
which one has to penetrate. In addition, in her school
she transposes documentary theatre methods onto
cinema, in which sound has a special role to play. Some
of the most interesting, controversial and courageous
documentaries that have come out of Russia in recent
years emerged from under her aegis, among them
such internationally known works as Milana, Winter, Go
Away! and Children 404.
In her master class she will explain the “Razbezhkina
Method” using selected film examples.

The documentary as firebrand?
The Polish example
DOK Talk Special
Documentaries in Turkey:
The Next Frontier?
When we talk about disobedience in documentary film
we inevitably think of the Polish school. Its representatives were invariably firebrands in several respects: they
courageously and radically opposed political dogma
and shifted artistic boundaries. At the same time their
films were characterised by great social responsibility.
Later generations built on the work of founding fathers
Jerzy Bossak and Kazimierz Karabasz to renew the
creative documentary film – as this year’s retrospectives
illustrate. Naturally, the backdrop for this retrospective
is also formed by current political and social developments in Poland (as part of Europe), which call for
nothing less than a new “cinema of moral unrest”.
While the international reputation of Polish documentary
film (rightly) holds firm, it would appear that in recent years any critical analysis of social reality in the filmmakers’ own country has gone astray. Or is a new wave
of social criticism about to be unleashed? Will the new
restrictive conditions under which filmmakers have to
work provoke inventiveness and resistance? What political
role can documentary films even play today? We will be
discussing these questions together with some of Polish
documentary films’ most important rebels and
pioneers of filmmaking.

The documentary scene in Turkey has grown considerably
since 2000, with a rising number of compelling creative
documentaries, more festivals, and social media platforms
that offer documentaries much-needed exposure. The
Country Focus on Turkey unites politically up-to-date
and controversial documentary and animated films:
independent filmmaking that challenges the official
narratives told by the government.
However, the recent changes in Turkey’s political
climate have put filmmakers in an increasingly difficult
position. The film I Remember for example, had to be
withdrawn from the Ankara Film Festival in April 2016
following a number of censorship measures. The work
by Kurdish director Selim Yıldız is a personal recollection of the massacre in Roboski by Turkish armed forces
in 2011. The issue of the Armenian genocide is made
the subject of discussion in Return and The Eagle’s Tree.
Many films shift the focus onto the actors from protest
movements that have originated in recent years. They
include, for example, an activist for LGBT rights during
the protests in Gezi Park, along with neighbourhood
residents in their struggle to preserve a historic cinema
in Istanbul.
This panel will discuss some of the key issues that
documentary film production in Turkey faces today,
from funding and distribution to artistic expression in
the midst of censorship debates.

DOK Talk Special
The Language of Protest – Artistic Forms of
Expression in the Ukrainian and Russian Context
Nach über 25 Jahren ist das DDR-Filmerbe noch lange
nicht komplett ausgewertet. Jenseits von DEFA- und
Fernsehproduktionen entstanden andere Bilder, die einen
erweiterten Blick auf den DDR-Alltag versprechen,
aber bislang kaum gezeigt wurden. Auf der Grundlage
von zwei aktuellen Forschungsprojekten, einerseits
zum Amateurfilm in der DDR (organisiert in Betriebsund Pionierfilmstudios), andererseits zu den Filmen
der Staatlichen Filmdokumentation (SFD), entstanden
für DOK Leipzig vier kuratierte Programme, die einen
Ausblick geben. Produktionsbedingungen, Zweck,
Anspruch und Charakter der filmischen Dokumente
unterscheiden sich dabei fundamental. Während
die Amateurfilmer ihren Alltag im Betrieb und in der
Freizeit aktiv abbildeten, waren die SFD-Filme nicht für
die Öffentlichkeit bestimmt und konnten gerade dadurch
auch tabuisierte Themen aufgreifen. Auf dem Panel
diskutieren wir mit Expertinnen und Experten über die
jeweilige Bedeutung der Bilder als kulturgeschichtliche Quellen und beantworten praktische Fragen zu ihrer
möglichen Verwertbarkeit für Filme. Wie ist das
Material archiviert, was ist bereits digitalisiert, welche
Rechtefragen sind zu beachten (u.a. in Bezug auf das
Persönlichkeitsrecht), und wann ist ein Film als
eigenständiges Werk zu betrachten? Das Publikum ist
zur Beteiligung aufgerufen.

This discussion is realised
with the support of the
Federal Foundation for the
Study of Communist
Dictatorship in East Germany.
In May 2014, the Crimean film director Oleg Sentsov was
abducted by Russian Federation security services. He
was later accused of being the organiser of a terrorist
group and put under arrest. After a show trial, the
artist was sentenced to 20 years in a penal colony and
taken to Yakutia.
The exhibition Sentsov’s Camera takes us back to these
events. In essay form, it tells of how conflicts become
inscribed in spaces, and how the inhabitants of these
spaces suddenly feel that they are prisoners. The story
goes beyond Crimea and the Ukrainian borders to other
landscapes such as the Isle of Rügen in Germany or
the Solovetsky Islands in Russia.
This talk will take us to the interface between art,
documentary film and resistance. In times of accelerated
history, documentaries about protest movements can
turn into important testimonies of disintegrating public
spaces more quickly than expected. Furthermore, under
the pressure of censorship or self-censorship, the artistic
intention behind a documentary can prove to be a gesture of protest. In the roundtable discussion, protest will
be considered both in terms of content and as a form
used by filmmakers from Russia and Ukraine.

Can you believe that in this day and age there are still
85 million people in Europe who want to enjoy your
movies but can’t do so? This potential audience includes
all people with sight or hearing loss as well as an
international audience of people who don’t have access
to appropriate subtitles yet (e.g. expats, tourists, international students, immigrants).
Greta & Starks are two apps that enable people with
sight or hearing loss to experience fully accessible
cinema everywhere. Starks also includes foreign language subtitles for an international audience. Thousands of audio descriptions, closed captions and subtitles
in many languages are produced each year allover
Europe, but are merely accessible. This presentation
aims to give answers to the questions on how these
assets could be made accessible, how value and access
for new recipients could be created and how the
value of audio description, closed captions and subtitles
could be enhanced more easily. This will enable fully
enjoyable films for all people who would like to go to the
cinema, but don’t have access to the language version
or subtitles they need, in order to fully understand the
film. To enhance the film experience, for existing
subtitles special smart headsets can be very useful.
We developed strong, beautifully styled, wireless and
affordable smart headsets for the projection of subtitles for the cinema industry. We are looking forward
to present our ideas and show how it could work
for your film.

Zwischen Gebührenprivileg,
Gefallsucht und
Glaubwürdigkeitskrise
Das Dokumentarische als Impulsgeber des
öffentlich-rechtlichen Fernsehens
Glaubwürdigkeit ist gerade dort, wo eine vielschichtige
und mehrdeutige Wirklichkeit mit dokumentarischen
Programmen verhandelt wird, die entscheidende Währung
eines gebührenfinanzierten Fernsehens.
Dieser Anspruch hat Schaden gelitten. Quotendruck und
Gefallsucht auf Entscheiderebene führte vielfach zu
Fiktionalisierung, Vereinfachung und Emotionalisierung.
Und obwohl man in den ö/r Anstalten stets betont,
„Fernsehen für Alle“ machen zu wollen, ist die Akzeptanz
des Rundfunkbeitrags dramatisch gesunken, Lügenpresse-Vorwürfe stehen im Raum und selbst auf Seiten
der Politik beginnt man, die Frage nach der Existenzberechtigung von ARD und ZDF zu stellen.
Leidtragende dieser Entwicklung sind, neben den Bürgern, auch die Produzenten und Regisseure. Oft würden
sie anders und Anderes produzieren wollen, können sich
aber aus der Umarmung der monopolistischen Sender
kaum lösen.
Kritik stößt inzwischen zunehmend auf offene Ohren:
Die ARD, so ein erklärtes Ziel ihrer Vorsitzenden,
will der Lebenswirklichkeit der Menschen wieder näher
kommen und auch auf die Bedürfnisse der Produzenten
stärker eingehen.
Das Panel wagt eine Analyse des Status Quo und
entwickelt Ideen für zeitgemäße Neuinterpretationen
des Dokumentarischen im ö/r Fernsehen.

Festivalarbeit gerecht gestalten
Zum aktuellen Stand und den
Perspektiven der Festivalarbeit in Deutschland
Seit 2012 schreibt die ARD jährlich einen Dokumentarfilm-Wettbewerb aus und prämiert dabei ein dokumentarisches Highlight für einen Sendeplatz im Ersten.

Das Thema des Wettbewerbs 2016/17 lautet „Die
Schmerzgrenze – Wie die wachsende Kluft zwischen
Arm und Reich unser Land verändert“. Die besten
fünf Einreichungen werden im Rahmen von DOK Leipzig
vor einer Jury aus programmverantwortlichen Vertreter/innen der beteiligten Rundfunkanstalten unter
der Leitung des ARD-Chefredakteurs präsentiert.
Akkreditierte Gäste von DOK Leipzig sind zur Präsentation herzlich eingeladen. Das Gewinnerprojekt des
Wettbewerbs wird beim Branchentreff „Top of the Docs“
während der Berlinale gekürt.
Im Anschluss an die Präsentation lädt der Mitteldeutsche Rundfunk zum Empfang.

In den letzten Jahren hat sich in Deutschland eine
kaum überschaubare Zahl von Filmfestivals gegründet
und etabliert. Ein Aspekt blieb dabei bislang unbeachtet: Filmfestivals sind Arbeit- und Auftraggeber.
Sie bilden mittlerweile ein eigenes, zahlenmäßig
relevantes Arbeitsmarktsegment im Rahmen der Kreativwirtschaft. Die Entwicklung einer so vielfältigen
Festivallandschaft, deren Bedeutung innerhalb des filmwirtschaftlichen Verwertungskreislaufs und als Standortfaktor nicht hoch genug zu schätzen ist, wäre nicht
möglich gewesen ohne die zahlreichen Festivalarbeiter/innen. Die Festivalbranche hat hoch spezialisierte
Berufsfelder hervorgebracht. Die meisten aber arbeiten
auf freier Basis, mit Werkverträgen oder in befristeten
Anstellungen, wobei über deren Ausgestaltung oft
willkürlich entschieden wird. Gesetzeslagen sind unklar
und werden nach Belieben ausgelegt.
Anfang 2016 gründete sich deshalb in Deutschland
die Initiative „Festivalarbeit gerecht gestalten“, die im
Rahmen von DOK Leipzig ihr erstes Vernetzungstreffen
veranstaltet. In einem ersten (öffentlichen) Teil
werden empirische Studien zur Festivalarbeit präsentiert
und diskutiert, im zweiten (nicht-öffentlichen) Teil
geht es um die künftige Organisation und Struktur der
Initiative sowie die Gründung von Arbeitsgruppen.

Lost in Translation?
Übersetzung im Dokumentarfilm am Beispiel von
Furusato von Thorsten Trimpop
Der Film ist fertig! Endlich, nach vielen Jahren voller
Arbeit und Zweifel. Aber was nun? Welche Möglichkeiten
gibt es für die Auswertung eines animierten Kurzfilms bzw. Langfilms damit er wahrgenommen wird und
vielleicht die Kosten deckt? In unserer Veranstaltung
zu den Vor- und Nachteilen von strategischer Festivalauswertung werden erfahrene Produzenten und
Festivalvertreter darüber diskutieren, ob es sinnvoll ist
Einreichgebühr zu bezahlen, welche Bedeutung
Premierenfestivals für den Kurzfilm haben und ob Lizenzgebühren für Filme auch bei Festivals gelten sollten.
Ebenso werden andere Auswertungswege aufgezeigt
und die Problematik von Festivalreglements und
blockierter Onlineauswertung oder Gratis-Tourprogrammen angesprochen.
Die Veranstaltung wird organisiert vom Bundesverband

Filmemacherinnen und Filmemacher finden ihre Themen
nicht nur im eigenen Land, und damit in ihrem eigenen Sprachraum, sondern auf der ganzen Welt. Sie sind
daher oft schon während der Produktionsphase auf
Übersetzungen bzw. Verdolmetschungen angewiesen.
Welche Herausforderungen und Schwierigkeiten
birgt dies? Und wie wirken sich diese auf eine spätere
Untertitelung / audiovisuelle Übersetzung aus? Eine
gute Untertitelung bzw. audiovisuelle Übersetzung, was
ist das überhaupt?
In Furusato (Deutscher Wettbewerb, DOK Leipzig
2016) porträtiert Thorsten Trimpop die ungewöhnliche
Beziehung zwischen einer Landschaft und den Bewohnern einer Kleinstadt inmitten der Sperrzone von
Fukushima. Thorsten Trimpop und sein Produzent
Tobias Büchner werden uns anhand von Ausschnitten
aus ihrem Film von ihren Erfahrungen mit Übersetzungen bzw. Verdolmetschungen während der Produktion
