Docupolis - Festival Internacional Documental
Docúpolis, the International Documentary Film Festival of Barcelona, is celebrating its sixth edition and announces the official call for entries for its International Competition. This year, Docúpolis has added new sections with the intention of connecting and establishing alliances with other international festivals.
As with previous editions, Docúpolis will show the majority of documentaries in at the Centre of Contemporary Culture of Barcelona.
The growing importance of documentaries in Spain and the intention of opening up new spaces for diffusion into diverse geographic areas, has encouraged the festival "to continue delineating diverse forms of representing our culture and recovering our memory".
The festival organisers, Tercer Ojo- International Documentary Association, takes up the challenge to offer the conditions that an annual festival needs to be able to present new ideas and to become a reference for the south of Europe.
