DOCUMENTARY TEA WITH JEAN-PIERRE REHM
For several years, Jean-Pierre Rehm has been the director of FID Marseille – International Documentary Film Festival.
During his tenure, he has attended numerous documentary festivals across the world as a member of the jury.
His interest lies primarily in discovering remarkable documentary films, little-known documentary filmmakers and new film or art niches not only across Europe but also in Africa as well as in Asia.
His work as a film theorist and festival director revolves around documentary film defined as a work of art that results from creative freedom, regardless of international co-productions or other aspects of contemporary film industry.
