JIIFF - Generation J
Desde 2014, Cinéma du Réel ha trabajado junto a profesionales de la industria para impulsar la distribución de películas documentales y fortalecer los vínculos entre cineastas y distribuidores. En la 36ª edición del festival se creó ParisDOC, un evento ideado por Maria Bonsanti, Anaïs Desrieux y la asociación Les Amis de Cinéma du Réel.
Los participantes que asistieron a este evento de dos días tuvieron la oportunidad de ver películas en posproducción, mientras que un día adicional se dedicó a debatir iniciativas orientadas a la distribución cinematográfica. El objetivo del evento, que más tarde se consolidaría como ParisDOC Works-in-Progress y el Foro Público, ya estaba claro: más que abrir un mercado, buscaba abordar los problemas y desafíos que enfrenta la industria del cine documental, promover ideas innovadoras y ofrecer a los profesionales un apoyo y orientación personalizados.
