Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival CPH:DOX, March has selected 71 films for its competition sections, including 56 world premieres, 12 international premieres and three European premieres. My Dear Theo will play in the main Dox:Award competition, which consists only of world premieres for the third consecutive year. The film is produced by Siri Natvik and Beathe Hofseth for Fri Film, with backers including the Norwegian Film Institute.
World premieres in the strong New:Vision competition include Available Light , a feature expanded from a performance piece by UK artist Morgan Quaintance. The film combines interviews with workers at a Tokyo museum, with conversations with renters in London, to consider notions of home in contemporary society. CPH:DOX has six competition sections: the Dox:Award, New:Vision, Next:Wave, Nordic, F:Act and Human:Rights.
Jurors for the festival include Sara Dosa, director of Bafta- and Oscar-nominated documentary Fire Of Love ; and Max Kestner, whose feature Life and Other Problems opened the festival. The full festival programme will be unveiled on February Facing War Nor-Bel dir.
