New Generation Europe Foundation & Documentary Showcase Reception

An industry reception celebrating bold documentary films championed by New Generation Europe Foundation and Documentary Showcase.

Join New Generation Europe Foundation and Documentary Showcase for an industry reception celebrating documentary films championed by both organisations. The afternoon brings together filmmakers and industry professionals for drinks and conversation.

New Generation Europe Foundation focuses on documentary films connected to Russia, championing anti-war perspectives, democratic future, and alternative voices challenging disinformation. The reception will also welcome the team behind Hell's Army, supported by the foundation, ahead of the film's UK premiere at Sheffield DocFest.

Documentary Showcase spotlights acclaimed filmmakers and early awards contenders through industry programming curated by documentary filmmaker Sarah McCarthy. Guests will meet teams behind the featured films following the Documentary Showcase: Academy Award Contenders 2026 industry session, supported by Scottish Documentary Institute, Screen Scotland, and New Generation Europe Foundation.
