Submit your documentary short to Films 4 Transparency, the film programme of the 22nd IACC in Punta Cana. Free entry, deadline 1 October 2026.
Films 4 Transparency (F4T) is the documentary programme of the International Anti-Corruption Conference. Curated, critical and relevant, it amplifies the issues at the heart of each IACC: films documenting the fight against corruption, showcasing alternatives for a more equitable world, and creating space for delegates to meet the protagonists, directors and experts behind them.
In 2026, F4T screens at the 22nd IACC in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, from 1 to 4 December. Presented by Transparency International, curated by The Good Media Network.
F4T is more than a screening slot. Ahead of the conference, we work directly with every selected film team to develop a film and impact statement: what the film shows, what it wants to change, and who it needs in order to get there. These statements are published and shared with delegates before the conference, so that the people who can act on an issue arrive already knowing which film speaks to their work.
In Punta Cana, each film is then given its own impact round table, a working session that brings the film team together with the anti-corruption practitioners, investigators, journalists, activists and funders best matched to its goals. This is where the programme does its real work. Not in the screening room, but in the room afterwards.
This makes the collaboration of the film teams an essential part of F4T. We ask selected teams to work with us in the weeks before the conference: on the impact statement, on identifying the partners they want to reach, and on the outreach materials, including stills, quotes, trailer excerpts and short videos, that carry the film into the IACC's channels and those of Transparency International's chapters worldwide. Films whose teams can commit to this process get the most out of the programme.
