ECAM’s Incubator is a program aimed at emerging producers collaborating with directors whose project is their first, second, or third feature film. It supports the development of films through training, mentorship, and professional guidance.
Each selected project receives a €10,000 grant for development expenses, paid in five monthly installments. Projects must be in the development stage with a completed draft script and a confirmed producer and director. No prior financing or participation in other programs is required.
The 2026 edition will run from February to July, with on-site sessions at ECAM, including individual and group mentorship, workshops, and training activities. Participating projects can gain visibility in national and international festivals.
The call for submissions is open until October 2025, and five projects will be selected for the incubator. Previous editions have supported films that received awards and international recognition.
