CIRCLE Women Doc Accelerator is a new training initiative with the main focus on empowering women directors and producers who work in the documentary film industry, through development of their projects selected in different stages, but also polishing their professional skills and raising consciousness and self-confidence. Introducing every year up to ten CIRCLE participants to the latest industry tendencies and new tools, as well as providing them with insights in market positioning and networking are some of the goals of the workshop.

June 15 -July 3, 2020 / Online

Module 02

August 27 - 31, 2020 / Montenegro

The first module is focused on analysis and development of the creative potentials of ten previously selected projects. The main idea is to gain a new perception of the projects, to improve the contents and the overall potential of the projects.

The second module is focused on production strategies with experts, and preparing the projects for the pitching in order to reach international financiers. The big part of the second module requires work on strategic planning, marketing and distribution strategies.
