Dana Bunescu.
The laboratory is addressed to documentary film makers, producers, editors, sound editors, authors, editors in chief or other Romanian television or mass-media professionals interested in non-fiction documentary film creative projects and formats, who have made at least one documentary short or at most a full-length one, and who have currently a project in the works.

Eight participant projects will be accepted, with maximum two participants for each project, and the final selection will be announced until 19 September, 2016 at the latest.
