A total of 15 female filmmakers with ties to Rogaland have been accepted for the workshop with Irena Taskovski at Boretunet on September 4 - 6. "We received around twenty applications, so it's clear that there is a need in the industry to create a safe space for sharing, skills development and networking for women in the region.
This is a trial project and if it is successful, we will look at the possibility of doing this again next year.
From Filmkraft, project manager Kaia Høidalen will be present.
The group is a great mix of screenwriters, directors and producers and the participants are: (from left) Irena Taskovski (course leader), Ronak Naderi, Eili Harboe, Frida Feline Nilsen, Emilie Sofie Johannesen, Eli Nessa, Maria Tuner, Lina Helvik (Photo: Tor Nilssen), Amalie Mikkelsen Vere, Karine Næss Frafjord, Heidi Strand, Maria Lavelle, Priscila Serrano, Gunhild Oddsen, Anna Shishova-Bogolubova and Vilde Bakkevig.
