High-profile visitors set for the festival include Ai Weiwei, Ukrainian feminist activist Inna Shevchenko, investigative journalist and whistleblower Christo Grozev, musician Warren Ellis, comedian Jerrod Carmichael, and Adam Kinzinger.

Image
Documentary festival Cph:dox has unveiled the titles in its competition sections, which include 71 films. There are 56 world premieres, 12 international premieres, and three European premieres. The festival runs March 19-30.

Niklas Engstrøm, artistic director of Cph:dox, said: “The times we live in are increasingly marked by conflict, chaos, and cynicism, leaving little room for the visionary or the poetic. Against that backdrop, we are proud to present a competition program that not only reflects the world but also refracts its light like a prism. Whether set in Ukraine, Mozambique, America, or China, the nominated films in this year’s program stand as a defense of the role of poetry and art in the world.”

Mads K. Mikkelsen, head of program of Cph:dox, said the competition lineup “truly represents documentary as an art form made for the cinema.” He added: “Cph:dox is about celebrating documentaries and the people who make them, and...
