A concern arises that Europe will become a colony of powerful streaming platforms. How to revive European cinema and what are the ways to address the viewers? What is it that makes European films different and authentic? Four up-and-coming producers from different parts of Europe – all alumni of the acclaimed EMERGING PRODUCERS programme – will share their experience and take part in the discussion which will take place during the East Doc Platform and streamed as part of Ji.hlava’s Echoes in Brussels, Paris and New York.

Livia Tinca (program manager of the Millennium Festival), Tom Van Herzele (professor of film schools in Brussels RITCS), Alice Tabery (Traces of a Landscape), Filip Remunda (Once Upon a Time in Poland), Adam Ol'ha (Alchemical Furnace), and Jindřich Andrš (A New Shift) discuss Czech and Belgian documentary scene.

The laureate of the Contribution to World Cinema Award at the 24th of Jihlava, the tireless Chinese dissident-artist Ai Weiwei, will present his most recent film – Cockroach – as part of the Echoes of Ji.hlava. After the Mexican abductions (Vivos), the Wu-han pandemic (Coronation), this time Ai Weiwei focused on the recent mass protests in Hong Kong and uses the footage of demonstrators to narrate the final moments of an independent, democratic Hong Kong. You can discuss Ai Wei-wei 's artistic work, his new film Cockroach, or his stands on politics and society together with the Ji.hlava IDFF director Marek Hovorka during an online discussion.

What was the reception of their films and their experience with American festivals, distributors, and audiences? Is reaching America a priority for them and what advice do they have for other filmmakers? Do they have any tips for American fans of European documentary cinema? The discussion with Adam Ol’ha of Alchemical Furnace, Hubert Sauper of Epicentro, and Pedro Fernandes Duarte of Ghosts: Long Way Home will be moderated by Summre Garber, a documentary filmmaker and film festival programmer based in Los Angeles. 10.03.2021
