Since 1988, IDFA has become one of the world’s leading documentary film festivals, screening more than 300 documentaries to an audience of over 200.000. IDFA is more than just a screening location for creative documentaries – it is also a place for filmmakers to meet each other and to come in contact with independent producers, buyers and potential financiers. On www.idfa.nl you also find more info on our two professional markets, Docs for Sale (online), a market backed up by an extensive database and catalogue, and the FORUM, Europe's largest pitching FORUM and gathering of commissioning editors and independent producers.
