Having explored the radical changes the development, production and distribution processes of cross media projects bring about for filmmakers and producers in a DOK Summit panel discussion, the DOK Leipzig Forum for Innovative Documentary Television will go on to focus on how “cross media” or “360°” content is handled by public television. Editors and programme strategists will discuss their approaches to the challenges they face on every level of these projects, from editorial concept via financing, contract negotiations and production planning through to technologies of distribution.

In his key note, the President of the German-French Culture Television Channel ARTE, Dr. Gottfried Langenstein, will reflect on the future role, structure and work processes of public television in an age when television, the Internet, games and ‘mobile content’ are merging. This will be followed by presentations by editorial directors of ARTE France and ARTE G.E.I.E., the Finnish YLE and the British Channel 4 of their strategies and case studies of extraordinary 360° projects, including “Planet Galata – A Bridge in Istanbul” by Florian Thalhofer and Berke Bas (Kloos & Co Medien) and “Farewell Comrades” by Sergiy Bukovsky (Gebrueder Beetz Filmproduktion and Artline Films).

Organised in co-operation with DOK Leipzig with the support of the MEDIA Programme of the European Union, the Mitteldeutsche Medienförderung (MDM) and the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media upon a decree of the German Bundestag (BKM).

Situated at the a crossroads of global interests, Kyrgyzstan reflects the political rivalry between Russian and America influence, reveals the religious rivalry between Christianity and Islam, and lies between the economic predominance of China and Russia. All That Glitters examines how strange capitalism and democracy can be when introduced to a former Soviet country, one where people never before given autonomy are suddenly expected to make their own financial and political decisions.
