Duration
75’

 

Are you part of an emerging producer-director documentary team with a project in development?

Do you want help devising a strategy to fund, distribute and engage audiences with your film?

Do you want to make new international connections with professionals and peers from Ukraine and the UK? 

Do you want to be fully funded to do all of this and attend the Sheffield Doc/Fest in the UK and Docudays UA in Kyiv, Ukraine?

 

The British Council, Sheffield Doc/Fest and Docudays UA will announce the start of a two-stage feature documentary training and mentorship programme. Three producer-director teams from each country will be selected to participate in sessions taking place in Sheffield in June 2016 and Kyiv in March 2017, with hands-on guidance from leading industry professionals from both countries.
