With a network of hosts in Europe, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East, Pop Up Film Residency believes in the potential for collaboration and growth anywhere in the world.

Since its pilot edition in 2018, Pop Up Film Residency has offered around 50 residencies, with this number increasing every month. Through partnerships with prestigious film festivals, labs, forums, and funds, the program aims to embrace and support contemporary cinema in all its diversity. While nurturing talents, skills, and innovation is the primary objective, the program also celebrates each completed film that successfully reaches its audience. Pop Up Film Residency is committed to fairness, respect, and equality within the film community, regardless of nationality, cultural background, gender, or any other factor.

Additionally, the program prioritizes sustainability and encourages environmental responsibility.
