[fusion_text]Fondation Liban Cinema-FLC, in partnership with the French Institute of Lebanon organized its 9th edition of the Feature Fiction Re-Writing Workshop.
As usual, the workshop was held in 2 sessions: First one in January, second one in March.
The workshop hosted 2 professional script doctors: Marcel Beaulieu from Canada and Magali Negroni from France both accompanied by the Lebanese script-writer Antoine Waked. A selected committee chose 4 candidates to attend this workshop.
For this year, and after having received a large number of files, a committee composed of a professional jury has finally selected the below projects:
1) Daniella Saba: Child of the Village
2) Cyril Aris: It’s a sad and beautiful world
3) Selim Murad – Serge Yared: North
4) Pierre Abou Jaoude: A Night in 1987
The workshop’s Program
During the workshop and through one-on-one meetings and collective round tables, the 3 experts assisted, helped and brainstormed with the 4 Lebanese Directors/Scriptwriters on their script so that the candidates can have a solid project to be presented to producers and/or funds.
The « Coup de Pouce » Award
At the end of the second session, a jury of professionals gave a price to one project amongst the 4 that had previously showed progression during the workshop and that still needs a small help in order to be accomplished.
Cyril Aris for his project “It’s a sad and beautiful world”, was granted the « Coup de Pouce » Award for this edition, an Art Residency at “Cité Internationale des Arts” for 1 month, that will help him continue developing his script in Paris
Looking forward to seeing all of them gathered around the same working table!
