Outpitch

About

OUTPITCH is a new platform designed to uplift and connect emerging queer filmmakers from Central Europe and Ukraine. It provides mentorship, visibility, and cross-border collaboration opportunities for projects that explore queer narratives.

Launched in 2025, OUTPITCH’s first edition will support up to 4 projects selected through an open call. Each project team will participate in a two-month online mentoring program, guided by industry professionals in screenwriting, directing, and producing. The program culminates in a three-day on-site workshop in Prague during the Mezipatra Queer Film Festival, featuring public pitching sessions, one-on-one meetings with industry observers, and open masterclasses.
