This year, 42 projects from 23 countries were selected to compete across seven themed pitching sessions.<\/p>\n<p>The 2023 pitching sessions are Global Issues, Wildlife &amp; Conservation, Science, History, Arts &amp; Culture, New Voices and Impact Campaigns. New this year, the winners of each category will be announced the morning after their pitching sessions during the Awards Caf\u00e9 on the Level-Up stage. At the end of the market, the remaining special prizes and awards will be revealed during the closing cocktail reception.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are delighted with the number, quality and diversity of issues, themes and formats of the projects submitted,\u201d said Mathieu B\u00e9jot, director of strategy and development at Sunny Side of the Doc. \u201cThe selected projects come from 23 different countries and make us question major planetary issues such as migration, women\u2019s rights, disability and, of course, the impact of climate change, which are present in all documentary genres. Stories great and small use history and humor to challenge our historic, scientific and cultural convictions by offering a diversity of perspectives, particularly from a large number of young directors and new voices. They aim to shake things up, as evidenced by the incredibly powerful projects proposed for the session dedicated to impact campaigns.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The full official selection can be found on Sunny Side of the Doc\u2019s website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunny Side of the Doc has revealed the official pitching selection for this year\u2019s event, which is set to take place from June 19 to 22 in La Rochelle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":19641,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[4566,1076,6868],"class_list":["post-19640","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-mathieu-bejot","tag-sunny-side-of-the-doc","tag-sunny-side-of-the-doc-2023","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Sunny Side of the Doc Unveils 2023 Pitch Selection - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sunny Side of the Doc Unveils 2023 Pitch Selection - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Sunny Side of the Doc has revealed the official pitching selection for this year\u2019s event, which is set to take place from June 19 to 22 in La Rochelle.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-05-12T14:22:51+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/SunnySideoftheDoc-Logo-0523.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"320\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/\",\"name\":\"Sunny Side of the Doc Unveils 2023 Pitch Selection - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-05-12T14:22:51+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-05-12T14:22:51+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/sunny-side-of-the-doc-unveils-2023-pitch-selection\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Sunny Side of the Doc Unveils 2023 Pitch Selection\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
