Registrations and applications for the initiatives that will make up this year's Industry program at Porto/Post/Doc are now open. We also remind you that Industry accreditations are already on sale on our website.
INDUSTRY SCREENINGS
Taking place between the 16th and 26th of November, in Porto, Porto/Post/Doc will organize the already traditional Industry Screenings, private sessions for film industry agents of a selection of new titles originating in Porto, northern Portugal and Galicia seeking a world premiere. As an activity aimed at programmers and artistic directors of festivals, sales agents, distributors and other film professionals, the participation in it implies an invitation.

COPRODUCTION MEETINGS
With the main objective of supporting national production and increasing international partnerships, Porto/Post/Doc will also organize Coproduction Meetings between Portugal, Spain and France. An initiative that aims to promote the circulation of artists, the development of new projects and foster opportunities for co-production between the three countries. Over the course of two days, participants will have access to Case Studies, Masterclasses and networking activities, as well as one-to-one meetings with other producers and guests from the Industry. In these meetings will be accepted projects in development or pre-production with a minimum of 15% guaranteed funding, which are looking for Portuguese, Spanish or French partners. The selected projects will have one-to-one meetings proposed and pre-scheduled by the festival. Non-selected projects will be able to participate in the meetings and schedule meetings freely.

ARCHÉ PORTO
In an annual collaboration with Apordoc, PPD organizes Arché-Porto, a creative laboratory for the development of cinematographic projects for directors and producers with projects under development or in a production phase. Over three days, an invited tutor will evaluate and monitor the participants' projects, before they are presented to industry guests participating in the event and to an international jury which will award a prize to the best project. In 2022 the tutor will be Andrés Duque, whose work is situated on the periphery of non-fiction with a strong essayistic bias.

WORKING CLASS HEROES
Mariana Gaivão, Mónica Martins Nunes and Jorge Quintela are the three directors invited to this year's edition of Working Class Heroes. The project, which has the support of FilmaPorto, foresees that annually three filmmakers are invited to develop a cinematographic project around stories and characters related to the city of Porto. The projects will be presented, during the festival, before an international jury who will choose a winner. The chosen project will have the opportunity to develop its idea in an artistic residency in Porto over two years.
