Presentations and meetings of DOC LAB POLAND are aiming for starting co-productions, exchanging ideas and experiences and attracting partners for cooperation on making, financing and distributing documentaries. These activities are organized as part of the Krakow Film Festival.

The main objective of the program is to enhance the artistic value of the selected projects, while increasing their festival and distribution potential. The long-term objective of the DOC LAB program is to promote the art of documentary film among viewers in Polish cinemas and actions aimed at introducing full-length documentaries into cinemas and promoting Polish documentary film abroad.
