So far, filmmakers from more than 20 countries have shown their documentaries at the festival, including films by local names such as Krsto Papić, Branko Schmidt, Robert Zuber, Joško Marušić and others. An important part of the festival is the so-called Mali DOKUart, and it is part of the program that includes documentary works by Croatian elementary school students, who mainly deal with the topic of tourism. On the spot, young people learn about filming and editing techniques and create their own short films, which is a valuable experience of creative work that lasts a lifetime.
