Sunny Side of the Doc makes Science its theme for 2019At a time when fact-checking is vital to counteract fake news, Sunny Side of the Doc is here to protect and champion factual content. This year, the international market for documentary and narrative experiences has made Science a keystone of the line-up. This earnest yet laid-back edition features conferences, round tables and plenty of exchange opportunities, aiming to make science more accessible and attractive to all.

The 30th edition of the international market for documentary and narrative experience will take place on 24 to 27 June in La Rochelle. The spotlight will be shone on this year’s chosen theme of Science, along with the slogan “Stand Up for Science!”. On the occasion of this 30th anniversary edition, which also celebrates Germany as a Country in Focus, Sunny Side of the Doc organised a program of conferences and networking around the challenges of blue-chip science documentary production.
