DFM ACCESS

The DFM Access programme, supported by the National Film and Video Foundation PESP funding, is a 12-week mentorship programme for producers with a project in development and not participating in an international lab/ pitching programme or market before. The programme will focus on story development, coproduction, marketing and distribution strategies, finance planning and more.  DFM Access ends in a pitching forum where 3 projects will be considered to participate in DFM 2023 as official DFM projects. The programme is open to emerging South African filmmakers with an active project in development.
