For professionals we offer an industry accreditation. This accreditation gives you access to the entire film programme of the 41st DOK.fest München – on site in our Munich partner cinemas and venues as well as online. In addition, you have access to all DOK.forum Perspectives events. 

 

Reduced Accreditation for student of a film academy: 50,00 Euro 

We offer a reduced industry accreditation for students enrolled at a film school. This accreditation grants you access to the entire film programme of the 41st DOK.fest München – both on-site at our partner cinemas and venues, as well as online. In addition, you will have access to all of the DOK.forum Perspectives events.

To apply for this reduction, please send proof of your enrollment at a film school to akkreditierung@dokfest-muenchen.de, in addition to your accreditation request.

 

DOK.forum Accreditation (without film programme): free of charge 

If you wish to attend the public events of our industry programme (perspective talks) without the film programme, you can obtain free accreditation for the DOK.forum. Please note: For the “DCampus Exchange Munich” you need a paid ticket.

Apply for Accreditation

To apply for accreditation, please log in or register and fill out the accreditation application under "My Account" - “Accreditations”. After your accreditation request has been reviewed, you will receive either a payment request or a confirmation email.

In our "How To" we guide you step by step through the accreditation process.

 

Please note:
Your accreditation does not automatically entitle you to a ticket for the film screenings. You must obtain a free ticket for each event in advance. You can get it either with your accreditation badge (at our sales points at HFF) or online.

 

Procedure for online tickets:

1) Please log in to your account on our website ("My Account"). 
2) Select the movie and the respective screening (time & venue) you would like to attend.
3) Select “with ticket ID” during the payment process, your ticket ID will be generated automatically.
4) Print out your ticket or show your confirmation email on your smartphone at the entrance to the movie theater.

Please always take your accreditation badge with you to the venue.

From May 11, the majority of our film program will also be available online. If you would like to watch a film online with your accreditation, you don´t need to get a free ticket: if you are logged in, a play button will appear directly on the respective film page from May 11.

 

Please note furthermore: For the opening film you will need a paid ticket, regardless of your accreditation.

If you have any questions regarding the accreditation, please contact Caitlin Voser: akkreditierung@dokfest-muenchen.de

We look forward to welcoming you soon on the 41st DOK.fest München!
