The festival was staged for the first time in 2000.[4] Originally intended as a once-only event, by the time of its launch the organizers had decided to organize a permanent biennial festival;[4] following the second festival in 2002, it became an annual event thereafter.[5]
DOXA award winners are given on the basis of three major criteria: "success and innovation in the realization of the project’s concept; originality and relevance of subject matter and approach; and overall artistic and technical proficiency". Jury members are filmmakers, film critics, and industry professionals.[6]
