Berlinale Talents is not a “school”, the participants are working people and the experts and mentors are seen as colleagues. During the six days in Berlin, you get in touch with thousands of fresh ideas and myriads of like-minded people. For many participants, Berlinale Talents is a life-changing experience and for everybody it is only the beginning of a long-lasting relation with the Berlinale.

Berlinale Talents is aimed for film and television professionals in the first 10 years of their career. You should have made either one feature length film, two short films or a high-quality TV series that have been screened internationally or won awards. Students are only chosen in very exceptional cases, e.g. when they have already worked in the film business before and come with a promising track record of films or series.

Berlinale Talents offers free accommodation for the days of our programme as well as a partial travel reimbursement that is determined on a case by case basis and at the sole discretion of Berlinale Talents.

Deadline: 1 September 2016
