Three Day Film Workshop with Klaudia Śmieja Rostworowska in Slemani

A three-day film workshop led by producer Klaudia Śmieja Rostworowska brought together filmmakers and producers for a series of practical and inspiring sessions. 

The workshop began on May 2 with a screening of The Silent Twins and a masterclass where Klaudia walked participants through the film’s creative and international production process. On the second day, she introduced the fundamentals of co-producing across borders, covering legal and financial frameworks and sharing real case studies from her work. 

The final day started with the Filmmakers Breakfast, an informal gathering that allowed participants to exchange ideas and build new connections. The program closed with one-on-one consultations, giving filmmakers personalized feedback on their projects. 

We extend our sincere thanks to Klaudia for leading the workshop with such care and insight, and to all the participants for their energy and engagement.
