The 8th New Horizons Studio is organised by the 17th T-Mobile New Horizons Association in co-operation with Creative Europe Desk Poland. It is a four day workshop, where 20 young filmmakers will train under international professionals. The workshop will conclude with a pitch presentation from the participants and a detailed analysis of their ideas from the workshop's speakers.

The organizers of the workshop informed FNE that this year's edition "is now intended for producer-director pairs who are developing their first or second feature film. Having a project at the development stage is a necessary prerequisite for participation."

The participants of the eighth edition will include 10 individuals from Poland (five director-producer pairs) selected from among applicants, as well as 10 individuals from abroad recommended by event partners.

The final application call for New Horizons Studio+ is 9 June 2017.
