Music Documentary Film Festival

The stories behind the hits and the stars are essential. They provide context, depth of understanding, they reveal and reflect upon the complex web of luck, sacrifice, randomness, and turbulent emotions that make music such a meaningful, personal experience for each of us.

They are part of the music scene, and we know a healthy scene cannot develop without camaraderie. So we are proud to be partnered with DokStation, the iconic festival that has been telling these stories for the last ten years, and the only one of its kind in Romania.
