International Documentary Film Festivals Meeting

The International Festival of Documentary and Short Film of Bilbao – ZINEBI, financed by the Institute of Cinematography and Audiovisual Arts (ICAA) with funds from NextGenerationEU, EITB MEDIA S.A.U. (EITB), Zineuskadi and Europa Creativa Desk MEDIA Euskadi, with collaboration by Cannes Docs, the Scottish Documentary Institute and the School of Cinematography and Audiovisual of the Community of Madrid (ECAM), is staging the sixth

Professional Documentary Film Forum Bilbao – ZINEBI Networking: Dokumentalen sorgunea.

As on the previous occasion, the event features emerging projects from all over the State. Therefore, ZINEBI Networking: Dokumental sorgunea has two 10,000 euro cash prizes: for the best documentary feature film in the

Autonomous Community of the Basque Country, and the prize for the best entry from elsewhere in the State.

ZINEBI wishes to take this opportunity to boost the regional audiovisual fabric, and streamline the relationship between agents operating in the sector and local and international institutions working in the filmmaking and audiovisual industry.

Also, as a new feature this year, ZINEBI Networking is bolstering its links to the ECAM school with a number of activities, and one of the participating projects will win an ad hoc advisory package by way of a prize.
