Scholarships and Residencies

Concentrated work on a (short) film project, without distractions, without worries about funding - this is an ideal state for many filmmakers, which unfortunately is rarely achieved. Scholarship and residency programs worldwide can help here. We have listed some of these offers here. The list is constantly updated and does not claim to be complete. We will gladly accept additions at service@ag-kurzfilm.de.
