For almost 20 years EURODOC has encouraged the meeting, creativity and exchange of ideas among the most active personalities in the documentary sector, with training sessions on the fundamental phases of the production process: from the acquisition of rights to budgeting, from the creation of the trailer to the preparation of pitching, from market analysis to the drafting of co-production agreements, up to the promotion and distribution of work.
EURODOC is divided into three sessions, each lasting 7 days, in three European Union countries. Thanks to the support of Fondazione Sistema Toscana, which collaborates in the organization of the event, Manifatture Digitali Cinema Prato was chosen as the venue for the second session of this year’s edition.
