From June to August 2016, five screenwriters will be invited to attend a seven week residency to develop a new draft of their original feature screenplays.

The aim of REALNESS is to provide the continent’s best emerging writing talents with the necessary time, space and support to develop their unique cinematic vision.

Submissions are now open until the end of January 2016. REALNESS is open to the whole of Africa.
