To contribute to the Indonesian film industry as well as to bridge the European and Indonesian film industries, EoS 2024 will hold a Short Film Pitching Project (SFPP) competition where winners will receive partial funding for their film production.
“This year we received 197 applicants from various regions in Indonesia: from Medan, Pontianak, Denpasar, to Kupang. The Short Film Pitching Project of EoS, which has been running for six years, has produced dozens of short films that have been screened not only at EoS, but also local and international film festivals. At EoS 2024, we will also premiere the SFPP 2023 winning short films by emerging filmmakers from East Java, Jakarta and Tangerang,’ said Meninaputri Wismurti, Festival Co-Director of EoS 2024.
The winner of the EoS 2024 SFPP will receive cash and non-cash prizes from EoS, SAE Indonesia, Kemala Home Living, and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology.
Films at EoS 2024 can be watched for free from 7-16 June 2024, at all festival locations by visiting the venue directly. For screenings in Jakarta, the public can register one hour before the film starts at the venue. (WHY)
