The film programme of the 40th DOK.fest München: In the cinema. At home.

Like every year, DOK.fest München 2025 opens up a view of the world: with 105 of the best and most current international documentaries from 58 countries.

For the 40th DOK.fest München, the former programme scheme is being dissolved. The festival films are divided into thematically focussed sections based on current themes.

Our aim is to ensure the greatest possible participation in our films, which is why we bring them to the big screen in Munich cinemas and cultural venues as well as to home screens throughout Germany as barrier-free as possible: DOK.fest München stays dual!

ALLES GUT – I'M OKAY (Germany 2016, Pia Lenz, DOK.deutsch Wettbewerb). Djaner and Ghofran, two children who have fled war and persecution, venture out into their new home of Hamburg. Pia Lenz’s observation of the pair has a delicateness that leaves you astonished and speechless.

BERLIN REBEL HIGH SCHOOL (Germany 2017, Alexander Kleider, DOK.deutsch Wettbewerb). What is more important: learning by rote blindly or collective understanding? Alexander Kleider’s revealing education study is about a radical, self-managed high school in a Berlin backyard: where there’s no pressure to perform (or bullying) and, in return, happy pupils!

DANCER (Russian Federation, Ukraine, United Kingdom, United States 2016, Steven Cantor, DOK.panorama). Sergei Polunin is the celebrated enfant terrible of the ballet world. At the age of four he embarked upon the career that led him to the Royal Ballet in London. But after years of extreme discipline, success appears to be a prison for him. An impressive dance film about growing up.
