INPUT, the International Public Television Screening Conference, is a unique public television event that focuses specifically on the innovative programs produced by public broadcasters. More than 1,000 submissions from over sixty countries are reviewed each year by an international jury of peers, resulting in a final selection of 85-100 of the world’s most provocative productions. The point of INPUT is not just to screen these works, but rather to discuss and debate them among television professionals.
