Talents Sarajevo Call for Entries 2022

Talents Sarajevo, the prestigious programme of the Sarajevo Film Festival, continues its tradition of welcoming up-and-coming directors, producers, actors, scriptwriters, cinematographers, editors and film critics in the programme that will take place from the 13th to 18th of August.

The call is now open for applicants from Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Greece, Georgia, Hungary, Kosovo*, Malta, Moldova, Montenegro, Northern Macedonia, Romania, Serbia, Slovenia, Turkey and – this year for the first time – Ukraine.

Talents Sarajevo 2022 will thematically address the contemporary concept of “content”, which dominates the spheres of arts, media and entertainment in our digital, Web 2.0 epoch. The very title Dis/Content critically engages with this complicated concept, omnipresent and elusive at the same time.  A programme of masterclasses, workshops, lectures, discussions and screenings will provide a forum for a careful examination of “content” and its effects, especially those detrimental to cinema and the audio-visual industry at large.

Founded in collaboration with Berlin International Film Festival and Berlinale Talents, Talents Sarajevo has become the foremost regional hub for meeting and training aspiring film professionals. In times that continue to be challenging for a variety of political and economic reasons, Talents Sarajevo will continue to provide unconditional support to aspiring film professionals. 

The closing date for applications is May 31.

The 28th Sarajevo Film Festival will take place from 12th to 19th August 2022.
