DOC ALLIANCE SELECTION // 2009
DOC ALLIANCE SELECTION represents five high-quality films, one selected by each of the Doc Alliance festival partners. The films tour at the five Festivals starting at VISIONS DU REEL Nyon. At the end of the year an international jury decides about the “Doc Alliance Award”. In 2009 the Award was handed over during the DOK Leipzig. The five national markets support the films at their festivals and in their theatrical, TV and DVD distribution.
