The competition, which will be open for applications till September 7, will end with the selection of 8 projects (with a minimum of 3 feature films and 3 series projects).
The winning projects will be developed over several months through a residency and mentoring program, focusing on the creation of the script and its presentation dossier. The initiative will end with the presentation of the winning projects in a pitching session addressed to professionals representing the Portuguese film and audiovisual industry.
