Ji.hlava New Visions Forum: U.S. Docs 2024

The Ji.hlava New Visions Forum: U.S. Docs 2024 featured eight U.S. projects in development as well as in production and post-production.
The selected projects traditionally include diverse genres and audiovisual formats – such as fiction films with documentary aspects, hybrid, cinema expanded, experimental and short films. The platform aims at effectively connecting the U.S. documentary filmmakers with the potential co-producers, distributors, sales representatives and film festivals from Europe.
The documentary projects presented at the Ji.hlava New Visions: U.S. Docs in the past years have later premiered at SXSW, Tribeca and other festivals.

STATEMENT: For this award, we were immediately struck by the unique essaysitic approach to this deeply specific yet universal exploration of the way we can be divided.
