Goethe Institute-Lebanon in partnership with the Metropolis Association and Beirut Art Residency offers emerging filmmakers from the Middle East and North Africa countries as well as Germany to participate in the Film Residency BACKSTORY.

The residency is an opportunity for those who want to upgrade their professional capabilities through Master Classes that will be available to residents (according to their interests) as well as for individuals who want to realize their filmmaking projects at any stage i.e. pre-production, production and post-production. It provides the chance to concentrate on their project by providing costs of living and accommodation; equipment if necessary and travel expenses.

The program is designed:

• To support regional filmmakers in shaping their professional careers by providing creativity-enhancing working conditions
• To initiate and facilitate networking in the region and between the region and Europe
• To provide opportunities for exchange and exposure
• To give Master Classes to enhance the capabilities of filmmakers
• To give technical support for film projects by providing technical equipment
