Euro CineLab 2025 is a training and production lab aimed at emerging and self-taught filmmakers from Central America, organized by Cineuropa in collaboration with the European Union Delegations in Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. The program focuses on short film production, with the central theme being "self-portrait." Participants will receive 40 hours of theoretical and practical online training over ten days in March 2025. Through this lab, filmmakers will learn how to develop a short film between three and ten minutes long. The five best works from the 25 selected, one from each country, will receive a 500 € prize and be screened at European film festivals held in each nation. Additionally, festival audiences will have the chance to vote for the Audience Award. This project provides a unique opportunity for emerging filmmakers to gain professional experience and showcase their work in an international setting.
