28th THESSALONIKI INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTARY FESTIVAL
5 MARCH → 15 MARCH 2026

AGORA’s new program strand, Talking Heads, is a dynamic platform reshaping the original form of masterclasses to foster inclusive and safe collective conversations, directly addressing the industry's needs.
As immersive arts and Extended Reality (XR) transform storytelling, producers must adapt to new creative and technical frameworks. Industry professionals will share insights on transitioning from traditional to immersive storytelling, exploring emerging technologies and innovative approaches to narrative and creative development. Through case studies, the discussion will highlight different approaches to building XR projects and navigating production challenges. From concept development to distribution, we will explore the essential strategies for those looking to expand into this dynamic field and harness the full potential of spatial storytelling and immersive media.
