ΑGORA Docs in Progress: March 9-13
The AGORA Docs in Progress program remains the main event in the region for directors and producers from Southeastern Europe and the Mediterranean regions to present their documentary films to buyers, co-producers, festival representatives and sales agents at the stage just before completion.
This year's selection includes 10 projects from 12 countries and engages with deeply personal and political journeys, exploring identity, displacement, resilience, and memory. From the intimate struggles of individuals navigating both physical and emotional borders to the sweeping impact of historical and global forces, these projects capture moments of hope, survival, and transformation, shedding light on the unseen and the often-forgotten.
