The world of non-fiction is one of the broadest and most consumed in audiovisual, with a constant demand for reality shows, formats, and docuseries, but it's also one of the most elastic in terms of transformation and evolution. Keeping an eye on the genre's future, one of the key themes under discussion in this panel will be the intersection between creativity and authenticity in non-fictional content production. How can creators maintain the integrity of their work while also responding to audience expectations and commercial pressures? What are the ethical and moral challenges involved in representing reality? What are the major trends, and how to engage with them without falling into the same patterns? Distribution will also be a focal point, considering the impact of new technologies on how non-fiction content is consumed and marketed.
