Master's Pitch 2025

The Master's Pitch continues to be a standout platform for training and collaboration, co-hosted by Documentary Campus and DOK.fest München. This dynamic public pitching format invites seven selected teams to present their documentary projects in development to a panel of industry experts.

Designed as an interactive forum, the Master's Pitch fosters insightful discussions, offers valuable feedback, and encourages the collaborative development of new documentary projects. The audience—including filmmakers, producers, sales agents, and key representatives from major broadcasters and platforms—plays an active role, contributing their perspectives and expertise.

The Master's Pitch is curated and moderated by documentary consultant Gitte Hansen.
