ABOUT CPH:DOX
CPH:DOX, Copenhagen International Documentary Film Festival, is the largest documentary
film festival in Scandinavia. Each year the festival fills the Copenhagen cinemas with a selection
of more than 200 documentary films from around the world. CPH:DOX is devoted to supporting
independent and innovative film and presents the latest tendencies in non-fiction, art cinema
and experimental film. During the ten festival days, CPH:DOX also presents art exhibitions,
concerts, five whole days of professional seminars, a screening market and an international
financing and co-production event CPH:FORUM.
Acknowledging the rapidly growing interest in documentary film, CPH:DOX. Supported by film
professionals as well as the national press, CPH:DOX grew from 14.000 admissions in its first
year to an impressive 47.000 in 2011. In 2012 CPH:DOX runs from November 1 - 11.
CPH:DOX continues to develop and expand, presenting a programme that ranges from the
works of major international directors to new talent, from large-scale theatrical releases to films
and formats that don't reach our cinema and tv-screens. The programme goes beyond
traditional boundaries between disciplines and media, offering perspectives on creative
crossovers between cinema, television and media art.
With a solid base in the documentary approach to reality, CPH:DOX aims at building bridges to
a wide range of related art forms on the music scene and in the visual arts. This exploration of
the interaction and interfaces between different media and cultural traditions emphasizes the
constant evolution of the documentary genre, and creates a space for inspiration and dialogue
between different creative forms with exhibitions and performances, music and sound projects,
live acts, VJing and the latest concepts of expanded cinema.

2012
WELCOME
TO THE 10TH EDITION OF CPH:DOX
CPH:DOX is 10! And we are celebrating our birthday with a programme that we would travel far
to experience ourselves.
Much has happened since the beginning. Not only for our festival, but also for documentary
filmmaking. When CPH:DOX started in 2003 documentaries did not take up much space,
neither in the cinemas, in the public debate, nor with audiences. Today, the genre has not only
reinvented itself. Documentaries have given the entire film world a much needed shot of
creative vitamins.
In our view, the most interesting current in the last decade of cinema has been the emergence
of non-fiction films that view reality through the tinted filter of fiction and staging. These are the
films that it has been a central part of the festival’s mission to support, screen and debate:
Reality is rarely 1:1, and filming it even less so. The new documentaries are complex and wild,
and they confront reality in a way that challenges black-and-white ethics and polite opinion.
Contemporary documentaries have a complex responsibility and relationship to reality, which we
don’t find in many other areas. They don’t only observe reality, they touch it and change it, says
CPH:DOX festival director Tine Fischer.
LINEUP
Across our five international competitions we are handing out a long line of prizes for this year’s
best films at the gala ceremony on Friday, November 9.
The entire programme can be found on our new WEBSITE: www.cphdox.dk

NEW:VISION
New Vision features experimental and innovative documentary films that are crucial to the
existence and evolution of the documentary. Over the past decade artists have been
increasingly drawn to documentary film, bringing an alternative and often conceptual approach
to the genre. It is here, in this borderland, we find some of the most interesting challenges to the
documentary.

AMNESTY:AWARD
The AMNESTY:AWARD was founded in partnership with Amnesty International Denmark in the
hope that film can inspire us to think, act and challenge our understanding of the world we live
in. The Amnesty Award series presents ten international films in a league of their own with a
focus on human rights. Most importantly, the films selected for the Amnesty section are powerful
cinematic works in their own right and with distinct auteur traits.

FILMS
We are showing over 200 films, grouped under five categories: HITS, POLITICS, MUSIC, ART
& DRAMA!
Should you need information about a specific film please contact the Press Department.
EVENTS & PARTIES
Since the very beginning, we’ve been taking movies out of the cinemas and placed them in a
context that we hope will enhace the audience’s experience.
Along those lines, this year we are screening a universally appealing film ’Bestiaire’ in the Zoo
after closing time, followed by a guided tour. We have borrowed a truckload of swan-shaped
water bikes to properly celebrate the international premiere of Andrew Kötting’s film
’Swandown’. And we are covering the American presidential election which is taking place in the
middle of the festival with an all-night event (the time difference, mind you).
Last, but certainly not least, CPH:DOX 2012 is opening and closing with gala events in the
atmospheric venues of Koncerthuset (Denmark’s Radio) and Bremen Theatre.
SEMINARS & DEBATES
Again this year, CPH:DOX presents a broadly conceived seminar programme, which gives
audiences as well as professionals from the international industry the chance to become
acquainted with a large number of filmmakers, artists, debaters, and others with ideas and fresh
insight to spare.
Peter Mettler, Swedish director duo Hanna Heilborn and David Arowonoritz, and sound genius
Paul Davies are present for masterclasses. In relation to our special thematic focus series, India
Unreal and Empire, we have invited a long line of writers, journalists, bloggers, and artists to
give their perspective on things.
And for the film professionals, a long strand of seminars dedicated to the latest from the
industry. From the launch of our new cross-media initiative SWIM to case studies in 3D
filmmaking and interactive, online storytelling. We are continuing our ART:FILM symposium
dedicated the production of artists’ film in collaboration with LUX and our new partner, the
International Film Festival Rotterdam.
13
CONCERTS
AUDIO:VISUALS is an exclusive concert series curated and produced by CPH:DOX, and held
during the festival between November 1 – 12, 2012. It is an ambitious attempt to explore the
field between visual art, and live music in new and challenging ways, presented at special
venues in Copenhagen.
The concept is simple: we have invited some of the most exciting musicians and film, visual and
performance artists from both Denmark and abroad to collaborate creatively across different
media and genres.
The idea is to combine live concerts, stage acts and installations in unique events where sound,
light and performance take part on an equal basis. And ’unique’ is to be taken literally.The
events in the series will only be presented this once.
Musically the series covers a wide field, but one current has proven extra strong this year:
Maximalism! In line with our special focus on the –ism of excess, a long line of the bands and
artists present here are cranking it up to 11 on the scale from 1 to 10. We are especially
delighted to bid our official favourite band Animal Collective back to the festival, where they
appeared last in 2010 with a live show along with an installation produced exclusive for
CPH:DOX and a guest curated film programme.
AUDIO:VISUALS take place in different venues around Copenhagen from The National Gallery
(Statens Musem for Kunst) and Kunsthal Charlottenborg, to our own venues Bremen Theater
and DOX:CLUB, both located in the heart of the city.
