DOXA Industry

DOXA Industry brings together a diverse community of filmmakers and industry professionals to discuss the art and craft of non-fiction storytelling. Through a series of workshops, roundtable discussions, masterclasses and networking events, we invite filmmakers at all levels of experience to engage in vital conversations while building the skills and connections needed to propel their projects forward.
How to participate: DOXA 2025 Industry events will take place in-person.
Tickets: DOXA Industry events are sliding scale (starting at $13)
Health and Safety: Please be aware that DOXA strongly recommends all attendees to wear a mask at all times during in-theatre screenings and Industry events, unless actively eating or drinking in their seats. This is part of our commitment to keeping DOXA staff, volunteers, and all members of our community safe and healthy.
