    TELAVI: The first edition of the script development residency organised by Terra Incognita Films and supported by the Georgian National Film Center is currently underway at the Zaira Arsenishvili House-Museum in Telavi, Georgia (10-17 October 2021). The project aims at helping to develop six feature films together with Georgian and foreign experts.

    The mentors include the American screenwriter and New York University professor Kenneth Friedman, Albanian director/producer Blerim Gjoci, the founder of Carte Blanche Pictures Anne Marie Boidock, French producer Dominique Velinsky and German producer Titus Kreyenberg, who will physically attend the residency and work with the participants.
