DOK Day

Our DOK Days continue! After a longer Corona break, we are looking forward to sharing cinema evenings with you outside of our festival week. At the DOK Days, we show festival highlights and audience favorites in selected cinemas in Leipzig and the region. 

Mark your calendars for the next date of our film series on 23 June at Schauburg Leipzig. We’re excited to present a preview of the documentary “Lonely Oaks” (Vergiss Meyn nicht).

More DOK Days to come in the next months. Stay tuned!
