Zagori Planet

Zagoriwood goes Balkan!

14 χώρες στην 14η διοργάνωση 

Zagoriwood, the well-established Film Workshops and Festival, taking place every summer on the mountains of Epirus in Greece for the last 14 years, is ready to take its next step. This year's organization will spread out during a fortnight, from the 14th to the 30th of July 2023.
On the 23rd of July, Zagori Planet comes back for the second year. Bringing together all Balkan countries, with their rich filmography and their diverse, yet connected, environmental struggles, Zagoriwood aspires to create a space for sharing films, ideas and discussions and for fostering connections between the neighboring countries.
The one-day festival will feature short films, in the categories of fiction, documentary, animation and visual arts, touching upon the topics of the environment, ecology and the fascinating relationship between humans, non-humans and the planet.
The call is open to films created by a Balkan filmmaker or produced in a Balkan country, up to 20 minutes long, produced after 2021. The films will compete for two awards, Best Film and Audience Award. Selected finalists will be offered accommodation and subsistence in Zagori, in order to attend the festival in person.
Eligible countries: Croatia, Bosnia Herzegovina, Montenegro, Albania, Serbia, Kosovo, North Macedonia, Bulgaria, Romania, Moldova, Turkey, Cyprus, Greece.
