The call for entries is now open until Sunday December 11th 2011.


The Movies that Matter Festival in The Hague is launching its first Good Pitch?.

The Good Pitch? brings together filmmakers with leading broadcasters, NGO's, foundations, philanthropists, brands and media to expand the resources aimed at maximizing the impact of documentaries on human rights and social justice. At this innovative forum, filmmaking teams pitch their project and its associated outreach campaign with the aim of creating unique coalitions and campaigns around each film to accelerate its impact and influence.

 

The Good Pitch is an initiative of Channel 4 BRITDOC Foundation and the Sundance Institute Documentary Film Program with the support of the Ford Foundation. Since 2008 over 70 films have successfully been pitched in London, Oxford, New York, Washington DC, Toronto and San Francisco.

 

 

The call is aimed at filmmakers of any nationality working on documentary film projects that tackle urgent human rights global and local issues and that enhance our understanding and stimulate active participation in the world.
