The first edition of Alternative Wave initiates the convention of young filmmakers with alternative financing, distribution, development strategies and new creative approaches.
The idea behind this first time event is, that many filmmakers do not have access to public funding or sources of financing and conventional distribution. While paradigms along the whole filmmaking and distribution process in the established film market are rapidly changing and the industry is trying to adapt, some filmmakers successfully created their own individual approach and scheme, be it forced by the lack of alternatives or by the pure ignorance of or disbelief in the standard practices. This forum wants to bring these filmmakers together to exchange ideas, practices and experiences by introducing and presenting not only the work they have done but also to talk and present future ideas. It is a lab to explore and to exchange. Also it is a place to learn from mistakes and fail.
Case-studies and Master classes will enrich the schedule and will be open to all interested industry members.
