The competition programme DOCU/SHORT is returning in its usual international format.
"This year, the program includes 15 films from 10 countries around the world. It's particularly pleasing that, after lengthy discussions by the Selection Committee and against the backdrop of truly fierce competition, six films by Ukrainian directors have made it into the competition, and they will compete admirably for the prize," commented Yulia Kovalenko, programme director of Docudays UA.
