TFT #DocsConnect & Dancefullness in Bratislava

  • How do you create an opportunity for your film to become an instrument of change?
  • Is your film ready to hit the market, but do you want it to make an impact and be a catalyst for action?
  • What is an impact campaign and how to work with impact within film distribution?
  • What challenges does impact bring and how to work with them?
  Impact distribution is, simply put, getting the right audience to watch your film. It’s the next step that takes us from understanding and awareness to action. The three-day workshop called The Impact days – Impact Lab was aimed directly at creating an impact campaign for 2 selected Slovak film projects – the animated film Spacehead and the documentary film Who are they. Under the guidance of Irena Taskovski and Khadidja Benouataf, the producers and directors prepared the concept of their impact campaigns, with a focus on strengthening the social impact of their films, to achieve social change. The second workshop day ended with a session of mindfulness in movement and creative expression – DANCEFULLNESS LAB. „Making impactful creative films, being successful, changing the world,  ALL of this starts with self care, mental health hygiene  and conscious filmmaking culture.„ – Irena Taskovski The Impact days 2022 took place at the International Documentary Film Festival One World in Bratislava and the program was created in cooperation with the IMPACT LAB #DocsConnect Taskovski Training program and financed thanks to the Heinrich Boel Stiftung.
