The Slow Cinema Workshop-Residency at IbizaCineFest will take place from February 20 to 28, 2026, in Ibiza, Spain. This program functions as a creative and educational laboratory focused on exploring contemplative cinema, known as slow cinema. It is not a competition for pre-existing works; participants will develop and produce an audiovisual piece during the workshop, such as a city portrait or a self-portrait.

The call is open to individuals of any nationality, with no restrictions on film genre, emphasizing practice and observation rather than completed project submissions. Attendees will receive theoretical and practical training in cinematic language, editing, observation, and filming techniques, fostering the development of a personal vision and unique style.

The workshop includes accommodation in Ibiza, internal transfers, and festival accreditation, though international transportation and personal filming equipment are not covered. Registration is done directly through the organizers, and interested participants must apply before the submission deadline set by the festival.

VdR–Pitching is an international platform within the Visions du Réel festival that supports feature-length documentary projects in advanced development. Its aim is to connect filmmakers with industry professionals to facilitate funding, co-production, and distribution. The call is open to projects over 60 minutes, with a creative approach and international potential. Both debut and experienced filmmakers can participate, provided the projects are original and not yet in production.

Selected projects participate in pitch sessions in front of experts and receive mandatory pitch training. Documentation is required in English, including synopsis, treatment, visual references, preliminary budget, and team CVs. Narrative innovation and the potential for international reach are highly valued.

Projects may also be eligible for development awards, including the Eurimages Co‑Production Development Award, which encourages international co-productions. The call includes submission deadlines and presentation sessions, with travel and accommodation costs covered by participants, although partial support may be available. VdR–Pitching offers a unique opportunity to gain professional visibility and support for creative documentaries in development.
