Festival

Tempo Documentary Festival (Stockholm)

EN/ Tempo Documentary Festival is the largest festival of its kind in Sweden and holds the national commission for documentary film. Founded in 1998, it has since then presented documentaries from all over the world, which would otherwise probably not reach the Swedish audience. Tempo has also established a unique forum for the presentation of documentary work across traditional boundaries – Film/TV, radio, photography, as well as more experimental forms of expression. Between festivals, a number of different events are arranged with a documentary focus, such as seminars, debates, photo exhibitions, together with screenings and workshops for young people. Tempo acts as the host for six competitions: The Tempo Documentary Award, one of Europe’s largest documentary prizes, for best Swedish documentary, Tempo Short Award for best Swedish short documentary, NewDoc, Tempo Pitch, Tempo Radio Award and Short Dox Radio.
