Docar is a documentary film collective that narrates urban stories. It was created in 2023 as a platform to delve into political issues by exploring their intersections with the architectural discipline.

The collective was founded by Jasper Meurer, a German-British political scientist specialized in immigration issues and social movements, and Rocio Calzado, a Spanish architect specializing in housing policy and the ecological transition. After meeting at the Sciences Po School of Research, Jasper Meurer embarked on a career in visual research, documentary films and photography, while Rocio Calzado collaborates with various urban design studios in France and Spain, teaches at architecture schools, and is pursuing her PhD in urban planning at the École des Ponts et Chaussées on the topic of social housing transformation. Docar combines these multidisciplinary experiences of urbanism, architecture, and politics. 

Since 2024 Docar is a local partner of HouseEurope! and 2024 a Lina Community Fellow. With the support of FAIRE, a project accelerator launched by the Pavillon de l’Arsenal and the Municipality of Paris, Docar has committed to the production and creation of their first film "De porte à porte," which is currently in production. In partnership with Museo MAXXI in Rome and LIFT Sarajevo, Docar released a short film on the European housing crisis titled ‘The Great Together.” In 2025 Docar will be the curator of the exhibition on Urban (de-)growth at the Belgrade International Architecture Week (BINA).
