2nd Symposium 2004

The End of Documentary?

Innovative non-fiction formats and series demystified

Non-fiction programming has radically changed in the last five years. With "Big Brother" as a milestone "real life entertainment" formats have won huge audiences and brought non-fiction back into primetime programming. Is this still documentary? Discovery Campus investigated recent developments in the international non-fiction market and presented some of the best and most exciting new documentary formats and series from Great Britain, France, Australia, Germany and the USA.
