Twenty young filmmakers from eleven countries participate in Málaga Talent
Directors and crews presenting their latest films at the Festival de Málaga will give the four masterclasses
In its seventh edition, Málaga Talent welcomed 19 young filmmakers from eleven countries who will enjoy a full programme of training and activities so that they can acquire tools to develop their projects and create new professional networks. Málaga Talent is one of the sections of MAFIZ, the industry area of Festival de Málaga.
Four tutors, professionals of recognised prestige, will accompany them throughout the process: Anders Riis Hansen, film producer (Denmark); Yolanda Barrasa, screenwriter, script consultant and teacher (Spain); Andrés Bayona, director of the Bogotá International Film Festival (Colombia) and Paulo Roberto Carvalho , artistic director of Cine Latino, producer and teacher (Germany).
Participants will also be able to learn first-hand about the work of renowned professionals, thanks to the four masterclasses they will be able to enjoy during the Festival. They will all be offered by filmmakers participating in the Official Selection of the Festival de Málaga and are sponsored by DAMA.
