Speaker:Maisha Film Lab

Venues:Grand Imperial Hotel, Summit Hall

Description: 

Maisha Film Lab partners with the 4 Regional East African Film festivals for an 8-day Screenwriting Lab in each of our target countries, Kenya , Tanzania , Rwanda and Uganda. For each Lab, Maisha’s International Reading Committee selects 9 participants based on their submitted scripts. 3 professional screenwriters volunteer their time to mentor the participants during the 8 day Lab. At the end of each lab, the mentors award a production grant of $2,000 to the best screenplay. These funds are contingent on the Maisha’s administrative team’s approval of the winning filmmaker’s shooting script, budget, and production plan.
