ZagrebDox Pro invites directors, screenwriters, cinematographers and producers of documentary films to apply for the niche training program Slow Pitch, which will be held from April 20 to 25, 2026.
ZagrebDox Pro is a five-day program that combines analysis of submitted projects, recommendations and suggestions for their further development. The program includes case studies, group and individual discussions with industry experts, master classes, special film screenings and round tables. Slow Pitch will provide participants with the opportunity to present their projects to a different mentor each day, and the meetings will take place at various locations in Zagreb. The program's uniqueness lies in the personal approach that allows participants to develop their projects in focused discussions with mentors.
WHO CAN APPLY?
Documentary works in various stages of development and production and finalization can be submitted. Projects from Albania, Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Italy, Kosovo, Hungary, Macedonia, Romania, Slovenia and Serbia, which thematically deal with the region and/or projects that require a co-producer from one of these countries, have priority in the selection.
