DocTalk ‘Favoriten’

Since 2019 the International Documentary Festival Amsterdam (IDFA) and the European Cultural Foundation present a selection of documentary films that encourages public debate on Europe, in the pathway Life in Europe. During this year’s IDFA, November 14 to 24, we jointly host two DocTalks during the festival;  longer conversations with directors and invited guests.

In this Doc Talk we will get to know more of Vienna and the dreams young inhabitants of the city have for themselves and our continent. Favoriten director Ruth Beckermann will be joined by curator Fariba Mosleh of Brunnenpassage. Brunnenpassage was one of The European Pavilion studios in 2021-2022. With their awarded project StoryTelling: Europe! they stimulated imaginaries beyond the national, involved people from marginalized groups, and invited them to tell hidden stories and to dream.
