Last Stop Trieste (LST) is a work in progress section for creative documentaries organized in collaboration with the Trieste Film Festival. 4 selected rough cuts will be screened to an exclusive panel of international sales agents, festival programmers and TV commissioning editors and will compete for the HBO Europe Award, prize of the value of 1.000 EUR delivered by an international jury composed by Catherine Le Clef (CAT&Docs), Leena Pasanen (Dok Liepzig) and Claudia Schreiner (MDR)
First Cut Lab (FCL) is a programme designed for long feature fiction films in editing phase. 3 selected producer/director teams will receive expert feedback from 10 international experts and tailor-made advice from a consulting editor. The main goal is to foster the artistic, sales and festival potential of the completed films. FCL is coordinated by Matthieu Darras (TorinoFilmLab) and Alex Traila (Transilvania IFF), and for this pilot edition has team up with Flow Post Production, Belgian based one-stop-shop facility that will award a free DCP to all selected projects.
Alongside these new side events, When East Meets West will dedicate a special focus on the English speaking countries, featuring a rich programme dedicated to co-production opportunities with the UK, Ireland, Canada and the USA. The two day event will include panels, case studies, meetings and, for the first time, the live stream event If you don't put your film on the internet, someone else will, organized thanks to cooperation between EAVE and WEMW and to be broadcast on January 20 at 11 :30 – 13 :00 on www.eave.org.
