How did this grant contribute to the realization of your project in regard to artistic exchange, local cultural development and/or the promotion of cultural diversity?

I attended a story documentary workshop where I learnt from specialists who helped me to develop my documentary film and to be able to produce it with international standards. The workshop allowed to me to meet international producers who informed me about funds institutions, which will help me more to produce my film. The workshop helped me to choose cameraman, who will help me in film shooting adding to that I started to study some of the choices in finding new producer for my film.

How does exchange, networking and international contacts contribute to the development of your artistic and cultural project?

Exchange networking and international contacts are vital element for me, which will help me to be opened to the international film market.

Can you elaborate on the learning and knowledge you have gained and shared throughout this experience?

The mobility increased my competences and skills. International workshop helped me to acquire new methods and techniques to develop my film project. It also allowed me to get familiar with the international professional market, which there is a lack of information about it in Palestine. The workshop gave me the chance to share more about my country with international professional people. This will help me to advance the film production field in my country and open new doors in this area.
