Antenna Documentary Film Festival
Antenna is an annual documentary film festival, established in 2011 with the mission to promote, celebrate and champion creative documentary cinema as one of the most exciting means by which we can connect to the contemporary world.
Each year, our team searches the globe for the latest documentaries, and handpicks 50 outstanding nonfiction works. We believe in the transformative potential of documentary and present a program that introduces audiences to the endless possibilities of the genre, with films that surprise them, spark their imagination and expand their world-views.
But Antenna is more than just screening films. During the 10 days of the festival, we create an inspiring meeting-place for connection and exchange, presenting seminars, talks, panel discussions and Q&A sessions. We also run an industry conference (DocTalk), professional development programs (Rough Cut Lab) and awards with cash prizes, fostering the next generation of documentary filmmakers.
