An onion-scented multilayered platform. Planted by doc-makers and doc-lovers imbued with the Mediterranean spirit. Creativity is its soul mate, the documentary – its favourite language. It has been growing to tower over conformity and to sharpen the senses of quality and critical sight. MakeDox.
The 14th MakeDox runs from 17 - 24 August in Skpoje, North Macedonia
