EFM Doc + Fiction Toolbox Application
FILMCO, with the support of the trinidad+tobago film festival and in partnership with EFM (European Film Market), is pleased to announce a call for applications for the 2023 EFM Toolbox.

Entry-to-mid level documentary + fiction film producers or producing filmmakers –  from Trinidad and Tobago, Antigua & Barbuda, the Bahamas, Barbados and St Kitts & Nevis – with a feature-length documentary or fiction film (60 mins or longer) in development (preferably with some financing and/ or funding already secured) as well as marketing materials such as a mood reel, teaser or trailer/ promo and based on Caribbean stories, issues or themes are invited to apply. Two applicants will be chosen to participate in the Toolbox Programme - one doc applicant and one fiction applicant.

The Doc/Fiction Toolbox Programme includes:

  • (Online) In the preparatory phase (in December 2022): Participants will be paired with their consultants and their coordinator. Between December and the end of the EFM, they will have up to 4 online sessions with their consultants to receive feedback on their projects and strategic planning for networking on the EFM. Coordinators will help with any organizational and logistical advice on the EFM.

  • (Online) Before the EFM (25.01. - 07.02.2023): Participants will be assigned to a group according to their preferred time zone. Each group consists of about 10 participants. During this period, a 2.5-hour online workshop will take place every day of the week. Please note that participants may also receive homework for some of these workshops so you need to be available throughout this period.

  • (In-person) During the EFM (16.02.-22.02.2023): Participants take part in EFM matchmaking formats and Toolbox Community Building Sessions in Berlin. You will be required to stay in Berlin for 6/7 nights.
