The Mentoring Acción>Cine Pendiente call is aimed at international cooperation and audiovisual professionals working on film projects related to international inequalities and social conflicts. Four projects will be selected—short films, feature films, documentaries, or fiction—that address North-South inequality and promote a fairer world, in development, production, or editing stages.
The program aims to connect filmmakers with international solidarity organizations to mentor and support their projects, creating spaces for reflection and learning that encourage a critical, engaged citizenship focused on the Global South. It also seeks to improve the thematic and technical quality of productions and strengthen their distribution and exhibition.
