Call for Festival Entries

Details about the DocLab Call for Entry 2025 will be announced soon. Keep an eye on this page or subscribe to our newsletter.

Every year we invite artists to apply with their XR and new media projects, live performances, and other interdisciplinary documentary artworks to be considered for IDFA DocLab. For the DocLab competitions and exhibition programs, we welcome immersive and interactive projects that use new media and emerging technology to tell stories and reflect on reality. This includes a wide range of formats such as immersive narratives, spatial creations, web-based experiences, digital art, games, audio narratives, physical installations, and artworks that leverage AI and other advanced technologies.

For linear film entries, please refer to IDFA’s general entry page.

Artists looking for co-producers, creative input, and financing possibilities for their new media projects are invited to enter their projects (in all stages of development and financing) to the IDFA DocLab Forum. For more information, see IDFA DocLab Forum.
