11th Peloponnisos International Documentary Festival
The Peloponnisos International Documentary Festival (PIDF), organized by the Creative Documentary Center of Kalamata, is a cultural event held in Kalamata and 14 other cities in the Peloponnese region, serving as a vital platform for creative documentary filmmaking in Greece. Operating for ten years, it aims to inform, educate, and promote the art of documentary filmmaking. Its objective is to screen films of social, environmental, and cultural significance, thereby fostering dialogue and critical thinking. A special focus is placed on expanding the audience outside the city through its communication strategy, utilizing innovative actions such as the Mobile Solar Cinema. The festival maintains strong international ties, exemplified by its recent collaboration with the Norwegian festival Nordic/Docs for the Micro-Documentary Competition, which culminates in the creation of a co-produced anthology documentary. The 11th International Festival is scheduled to take place from November 21st to November 30th, 2025.
