- CoPro 28 will run from June 8‑12 in Tel Aviv, offering a hybrid online and in‑person format for participants.
- Israeli Content Marketing Foundation is hosting the market, which will present over 40 new Israeli documentary projects and feature a pitching forum and one‑to‑one meetings.
- Over 70 participants from international broadcasting networks, production companies, distributors and film organisations are confirmed, including leading global studios.
- CoPro has signed more than 700 co‑production and partnership agreements, positioning the market as a key source of Israeli documentary content for North American and European distributors.
- Pnina Halfon Lang, CoPro executive director, said documentary cinema can create space for complexity, empathy and dialogue amid global polarization.
- The lineup includes documentaries on topics ranging from Israel’s top OnlyFans creator (“The Fans Are Mine”) to women’s motorcycle racing (“What Are You Willing to Die For?”) and Israeli‑Palestinian reconciliation (“Women of Peace”).
Why it matters: The market’s hybrid format and large international attendance give Israeli documentary makers direct access to North American and European distributors, expanding sales and co‑production opportunities; the varied slate—from a popular OnlyFans creator to peace‑building stories—broadens the narratives that can reach global audiences.
