We are thrilled to announce the kickoff of the Ex Oriente Series 2024 1st session, taking place at the prestigious Sunny Side of the Doc festival. This event marks the second year of the Ex Oriente Series, a program dedicated to developing and supporting innovative docuseries projects from Central and Eastern Europe.
The Ex Oriente Series is supported by Creative Europe MEDIA, the Ministry of Culture of the Czech Republic, and the Czech Film Fund.
The first session, scheduled from Sunday, June 23 to Tuesday, June 25 in La Rochelle, France, will once again be led by leading tutor Ruth Reid, a distinguished creative producer renowned for her impactful work in the documentary field. Reid will bring her expertise to six carefully selected docuseries projects, guiding them through the initial stages of development. Her role as the leading tutor promises to provide invaluable insights and direction to the participants.
Joining Ruth Reid in this collaborative endeavour are esteemed guest tutors Chris Westendorp, Catherine Chevassu, Malin Hüber, and Samuel Joyce. Each brings a unique set of skills and perspectives, enriching the program with diverse methodologies and industry knowledge. Their combined experience is expected to foster an environment of creativity and rigorous professional development for the participating projects.
The Ex Oriente Film program is committed to continuous improvement and working with top-tier industry professionals. As such, the list of tutors for Ex Oriente Film 2024 will be updated throughout the year. The latest updates and a comprehensive overview of all the tutors involved can be accessed HERE.
The second year of the Ex Oriente Series promises to build on the successes of its inaugural year, continuing to support and elevate the work of documentary filmmakers. By fostering a collaborative and nurturing environment, the program aims to inspire and guide the next generation of docuseries creators. As we begin this year's journey at Sunny Side of the Doc, we look forward to the innovative stories and impactful projects that will emerge from this exceptional program.
