In collaboration with Patakha Pictures in Pakistan and Scottish Documentary Institute in the UK, Pakistan Stories seeks to support a new generation of female Pakistani documentary filmmakers to enable them to create engaging films that reflect on their society, and Pakistan’s 75 years of independence. Pakistan Stories will work with 10 emerging filmmakers who will work in pairs to develop their skills, support them in producing original content in a safe environment, and reach new local and international audiences through their work. The project will be through a mixture of seminars, consultant-led advice and mentorship sessions. The selected filmmakers will attend 18 practical documentary sessions online over 8 weeks where they will explore documentary creativity for the international film festival market.
