Controversial Dox

Controversial Dox gathers films that provoke debate, resistance or discomfort. Provocation here is not an end in itself, but a space where values, perspectives and interpretations collide. Themes are often sensitive: moral dilemmas, social taboos, polarisation, media manipulation and personal boundaries. These films can feel like uncomfortable mirrors – and that is why they matter. The section reminds us that documentary is never neutral: it is a gaze, a choice, a risk. Controversial Dox exposes power structures hidden behind “normality”. The films ask us to think more slowly and deeply, rather than judge instantly. Audience reactions often become part of the event itself. If you want to leave your comfort zone and enter a zone of insight, this is your section.
