Ensuring, preserving and financing independent documentary production in Europe. 

Independent documentary is far more than a genre: it is an irreplaceable lens on European lives, a space of freedom that no other medium can occupy. Yet the conditions for its creation, circulation and survival remain precarious, fragmented and insufficiently defended.
