The first edition of the Ex Oriente Film international documentary film workshop will launch on July 17 in Rijeka, Croatia. Several Polish filmmakers are among participants of this year’s edition.

Launched 10 years ago, Ex Oriente Film is a professional training workshop for film directors and producers from Central and Eastern Europe.

Three out of the 14 projects at this year’s workshop are Polish films, selected out of a total of almost 100 submissions from 17 countries.
