ChopShots is a documentary film festival for the Asia-Pacific region organized by DocNet Southeast Asia—a project initiated by Goethe-Institut and funded by the EU—and its partners from six Southeast Asian countries. The festival brings the Asian as well as the international documentary scene together to celebrate the art and business of documentary making. ChopShots is the ideal event for people from the documentary and digital industries to get together - to screen their work, share knowledge, do business, make new contacts and discuss innovations and challenges they are facing in the ever changing media landscape.
Winning newcomers will get an opportunity to travel with their films to Southeast Asian neighbouring countries for the CHOPSHOTS TRAVELLING FESTIVAL: Cambodia, Laos, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam.
Focus this year: DOCS ANIMATED! ChopShots2014 is looking for documentary films which use animation or are animated.
