The 11th Edition of the documentary film workshop
Aristoteles Workshop 2016 is to unfold in Șurdești village of Maramureș, between 23 August-24 September 2016. The submission period will end on 20 July.
After four years spent in Transilvania and five years in Bucovina, Aristoteles Workshop moves to Maramureș, in Șurdești, where the workshop's logistic centre will be located; the village became known for its 18th century wooden church, inscribed on UNESCO World Heritage List.
Aristoteles Workshop is dedicated to young people all over Europe, with experience in directing, cinematography and editing, being an annual documentary film workshop where European film industry professionals provide guidance to 12 youngsters in making their own documentary. The programme offers its attendants a triple benefit: to learn, to produce a film and to be promoted as filmmakers. Grouped in four teams made up of three international participants – a director, a cameraman and an editor – they have 30 days to make
a documentary film of maximum 30 minutes. The evaluation of the projects will be made in front of a jury of international professionals, at the end of the workshop.
The 11th Edition will have, as main expert, the French documentarist Thierry Garrel, who, for over 20 years, run the documentary film department of ARTE France Channel, and was director of the Documentation and Archives Department of the Audio-visual National Institute (INA).
The workshop is produced by actor
Dan Nuțu, who edited original BBC documentaries for the American market. Returned in Romania in 2006, he set up Aristoteles Workshop together with Cristina Hoffman.
