15 Documentaries Selected

It is with great pleasure that the European Film Academy and EFA Productions announce the EFA Documentary Selection, a list of 15 European documentaries recommended for a nomination for this year's European Film Awards.
Ten documentary festivals have suggested to the committee one film each which has had its world premiere at the respective festival’s latest edition. Chosen in co-operation with the European Documentary Network EDN, these festivals are:

Cinéma du Réel (France)
CPH:DOX (Denmark)
Doclisboa (Portugal)
DOK Leipzig (Germany)
IDFA (Netherlands)
Ji.hlava (Czech Republic)
Krakow Film Festival (Poland)
Sheffield Doc/Fest (UK)
Thessaloniki Documentary Film Festival (Greece)
Visions du Réel (Switzerland)

Based on their recommendations and the films individually submitted, the documentary committee, consisting of EFA Board Member Ira von Gienanth (Germany), festival programmers Marek Hovorka (Czech Republic) and Elena Subirà i Roca (Spain), producer Nik Powell (UK) and commissioning editor Sari Volanen (Finland) decided on the EFA Documentary Selection.
EFA Members will now vote for five documentary nominations. Based on these nominations, the EFA Members will then elect the ‘European Documentary 2018’ which will be announced during the awards ceremony on 15 December in Seville.
