Docs Ireland is back for our 4th year and this is your chance to be part of it! We are inviting submissions for Docs Ireland 4 which will take place in June 2022.
Docs Ireland is an annual dynamic programme of events showcasing the Irish documentary industry. It’s the only festival of it's kind in Ireland, run by the team behind Belfast Film Festival, and chaired by award winning, Internationally renowned documentary film maker, Mark Cousins. Docs Ireland showcases high quality documentaries that inspire, educate and enliven cultural discourse.
Documentary is the medium, now more than ever, that helps us make sense of the strange times we are living through. After a record breaking first edition in 2019, and hybird festivals in the strange years since, we're back in 2022 for round 4! Throughout the festival we will present new and international documentaries, shorts and features, and will host industry events including a marketplace, pitching sessions, masterclasses, new talent focus and funding information events.
Our final dates may slightly change in the coming months.
As well as our long standing award for Best Observational Documentary (The Maysles award) there will be cash prizes for Best Short Irish Doc and The Pull Focus Award for Best Irish Feature Documentary.
