NORD / EST / DOC / CAMP

Bolzano Film Festival Bozen, Euganea Film Festival, and Pordenone Docs Fest—in collaboration with the film commissions and audiovisual funds of the Triveneto region—are organizing the 4th edition of Nord/Est/Doc/Camp. This is a consultancy and mentoring workshop designed for mid-length and feature-length documentaries produced in Northeast Italy.

Nord/Est/Doc/Camp offers a multi-stage program of feedback, networking, and training across the partner festivals in Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Trentino-Alto Adige, and Veneto. It connects filmmakers and producers with selected experts in an informal setting through a series of targeted meetings and workshops aimed at maximizing the potential of films-in-progress—covering everything from editing and post-production to festival strategies and distribution—with the goal of strengthening the projects' profiles and narrative structures while expanding their reach and distribution prospects.

The four documentaries participating in Nord/Est/Doc/Camp 2026 are: Rage Rage Against The Dying Of The Light by Nuno Escudeiro, Mia sorella è un pirata by Jacopo Mutti, Quando è pronto, il fieno canta by Letizia Buoso, and Sonic Silence by Alessandro Ambroggi and Ludovico Chincarini.

The third and final stage of the fourth edition of Nord/Est/Doc/Camp will take place in Monselice during the Euganea Film Festival on August 28 and 29. It features a two-phase workshop: the first day is open to producers, filmmakers, and industry professionals from the Triveneto region—even those without a specific project—offering a free training opportunity where everyone can attend presentations and ask questions; the second day is reserved for the producers and directors of the four projects selected for Nord/Est/Doc/Camp 2026, who will consult with mentors on the completion and future of their documentaries, specifically addressing issues such as festival strategy, sales and rights, audience design, and distribution. Nord/Est/Doc/Camp is supported by the IDM Film & Music Commission Südtirol, Trentino Film Commission, Veneto Film Commission, and Friuli Venezia Giulia Film Commission, with the collaboration of the FVG Audiovisual Fund.
