Script Pitch puts the power of stories in the spotlight. Screenwriters from around the world present their projects, perspectives and narratives – whether animated or live-action – to a jury and audience of trade professionals. In preparation, participants develop their scripts further in the Script Lab and refine their presentations in pitch training sessions. The centre of the competition: the prestigious Script Pitch Award, endowed with 2,000 euros in prize money, as well as the chance to take part in a development lab run by CineSud.
