The Doha Film Institute's Qumra workshop is set to kick off its 10th edition with Toni Collette and Atom Egoyan among its project mentors.
The Doha Film Institute’s unique Qumra incubator kicks off Friday with six days of master classes, labs and mentoring sessions and some 200 industry professionals – including programmers from Cannes, Venice, Toronto, Berlin and many other major festivals – expected to make the trek to the Qatari capital. Projects in post-production are presented in a series of closed rough-cut and picture lock screenings for leading festival programmers, broadcasters, market representatives, sales agents and distributors. As previously announced, this year’s Qumra masters, who will hold onstage conversations and also act as mentors, are Leos Carax, Toni Collette, Claire Denis, Atom Egoyan, Martín Hernández and Jim Sheridan.
