Mazal Mazal Filmmakers: Helli Hardy Producers Kobi Mizrahi, Ohad San Production Company: KM Productions SCENE PITCH Country: Israel Language: Hebrew Genre: Children Lab Edition: 14 , 2026 LOG LINE Mazal is planning the 12th birthday of her dreams, hoping to finally reinvent herself. But with rockets falling and war raging outside, puberty turns out to be its own battlefield. SYNOPSIS Mazal Ben-Baruch, 11¾, believes she is the unluckiest girl. She dreams of a perfect Bat Mitzvah (12 year old traditional birthday) that will finally make her popular. But when war breaks out, her father loses his job and her mother is called to reserve duty, her dream falls apart. Everything changes when her father finds work at an evacuee hotel, where Mazal sees a chance to reinvent herself and pretends to be an evacuee, earning her the first real friends of her life. But the better the lie works, the harder it becomes to escape. DIRECTOR'S NOTE I grew up in Israel, through periods of wars and conflicts. Looking back, what stays with me is how fear existed alongside everything else: worrying about whether I belonged, whether I had friends, whether a boy in my class liked me. Even when frightening things were happening around me, the everyday struggles of growing up could feel just as urgent. That contradiction is at the heart of "Mazal". Also, I never had a Bat Mitzvah myself. Maybe this is my chance. ABOUT THE FILMMAKER Helli Hardy is a screenwriter, director and producer.

L'OR ROUGE (Red Gold) L'OR ROUGE (Red Gold) Filmmakers: Mathieu Volpe Producer Delphine Tomson (Les Films du Fleuve) Production Company: SCENE PITCH Country: Italy/Belgium Language: Bissa, Mooré, French, English, Italian & others Genre: Drama Lab Edition: 10 , 2022 LOG LINE While trying to repatriate the body of her son who died in the South of Italy, Regina (45, Burkinabé) discovers the system that made him a slave and tries to accomplish the mission he was unable to fulfil, turning her grief into revolt. SYNOPSIS After learning about the death of her son Isaac, Regina (45) travels from Burkina Faso to Southern Italy to arrange the repatriation of his body. Here, she discovers that he lived in “the Ghetto”, a slum where hundreds of immigrant workers are exploited for the harvest of tomatoes. / Our goal is to work with people from the Ghetto, as actors as well as members of the crew, and to shoot on location. By working on the border between documentary and fiction, we hope to stay true to the complexity of this unique place. DIRECTOR'S NOTE Each era has its slaves. That's what I thought when I discovered the Ghetto, a huge slum in the South of Italy, a few kilometres far from my childhood town. In 2015, I spent almost two months there to make my last short film (“Our territory”, Locarno 2019) in order to show the daily life of tomato workers who live in the slum. The Ghetto is a place that we, as Westerners, would rather not see: it is a system that crushes the lives of its workers and sacrifices them for the profit of capitalism. From that moment on, my intention is to keep exploring this reality in order to make it visible. ABOUT THE FILMMAKER PRODUCER Delphine Tomson (Les Films du Fleuve) Directors Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne founded Les Films du Fleuve in 1994 with the main goal of developing and financing their feature films. Afterwards, they decided to get involved in the co-production of international films in order to enlarge their catalogue by creating collaborations with renowned authors. Today, Les Films du Fleuve, wish to accompany more closely young authors as a major producer in the development and the realization of feature films with an international ambition. After studying photography, Delphine Tomson joined Les Films du Fleuve in 2002 as a production assistant. Since 2008, she has been working as a producer with Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne.

Girls Will Be Girls Girls Will Be Girls Filmmakers: Shuchi Talati Producers Sanjay Gulati, Richa Chadda Production Company: SCENE PITCH Country: India Language: English, Hindi Genre: Coming of age Lab Edition: 9 , 2021 LOG LINE Follows the journey of 16 year old Mira, whose sexy, rebellious coming of age is disrupted by her young mother who never got to come of age herself. SYNOPSIS Follows the journey of 16 year old Mira, whose sexy, rebellious coming of age is disrupted by her young mother who never got to come of age herself. DIRECTOR'S NOTE Director’s Note GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS is set in a conservative Hindu school much like my school where we started each day with a pledge to “preserve our ageless Indian culture and conform to the way of life prescribed by it.” As I sprouted breasts, I understood that ‘Indian culture’ was the reason my skirt had to be long and my behavior demure. We were being taught to be ashamed of our bodies and sexuality while male sexuality was allowed to express itself, often in aggression towards us. Meanwhile, real female bodies and female desire were also erased from our screens. Breasts and butts were hypersexualized as women gyrated for the male gaze. But vaginas, menstruation, pubic hair, etc. were absent or treated with embarrassment and revulsion. The effect of this erasure is to cast our bodies as something shameful. It teaches us to be compliant and afraid of our body, sexuality and voice. Despite this, all around me I saw fierce, funny women who subverted social and moral codes. In GIRLS I wanted to write about these women who populated my life but not my screens. In GIRLS, Mira and her mother Anila are sexual, embodied beings with secretions and desires. Mira examines her vagina in a mirror, masturbates by rubbing up against a teddy bear and orchestrates her first sexual encounter. Anila shuns the self-sacrificing, asexual roles mothers are relegated to. She envies her daughter’s figure and boyfriend and pursues her desires with fervor. But even though GIRLS is a close observation of gender roles, sexuality, and patriarchy, it makes no thesis statement. The women in this film are not essentialized by their identities as Indian women, nor are they stand-ins for entire communities whose stories enlighten us about a social issue. I want Mira and Anila to represent only their singular selves as they experience love, disillusionment and envy. Because this is how their stories will also be universal—a luxury mostly reserved for characters from dominant cultures.

Horse Parade Horse Parade Filmmakers: Luciana Vieira, Gabriela Matarazzo Producer Claudia Chakmati Production Company: Rhiza, Deberton Filmes SCENE PITCH Country: Brazil Language: Portuguese Genre: Coming of Age, Sports Drama Lab Edition: 14 , 2026 LOG LINE On Brazil’s clandestine horse-racing circuit, a talented teenage jockey must deal with her father’s gambling addiction, the very thing that fuels, as well as threatens, her gift. SYNOPSIS Filipa (17) is a promising jockey on Brazil's clandestine horse-racing circuit — everything she knows about horses, she learned from her father, Joel. But her talent isn't enough to outrun his gambling addiction. When Joel sells her horse to cover a debt, Filipa must decide whether to keep racing at all and place one last bet to win back her own independence. DIRECTOR'S NOTE My fascination with horses led me to spend years researching amateur horse racing, and my desire to portray women entering spaces where they are rarely seen shaped ״Horse Parade״. Through Filipa's journey, I want to portray not only her ambition to become a successful jockey, but the emotional cost of confronting invisible rules. Blending sports drama with a coming-of-age story, I seek to create a vibrant, colorful, and emotionally charged debut feature. Guided by the actors' physicality and a mise-en-scène that privileges gesture over dialogue, the film reveals the complexity of contemporary northeastern Brazil through an intimate perspective, exploring themes such as gender inequality and gambling addiction.

Birth Right Birth Right Filmmakers: Inbar Horesh Producer Maya Fischer Production Company: Green productions SCENE PITCH Country: Israel Language: Russian, English, Hebrew, Arabic Genre: Comic Drama Lab Edition: 10 , 2022 LOG LINE A group of young adults from the former USSR countries embark on a tour in Israel that encourages immigration. On a road trip from north to south, sexual experiences clash with Jewish nationalism as the group members try  to figure out if Israel is their promised land. SYNOPSIS Every year the state of Israel sponsors educational tours for thousands of young diaspora Jews, connecting them to Jewish identity, encouraging immigration to Israel and preventing intermarriage in their home countries. After learning that her deceased father was Jewish, Natasha (18) joins a tour with a group of young adults from former USSR countries, hoping to find a new home. On a road trip throughout Israel, Natasha will struggle to fit in with her group and with the country she is discovering to be so different from the one she imagined. DIRECTOR'S NOTE Growing up in a society that sanctifies the concept of belonging yet not feeling that I actually belong, lead me to develop this script about newcomers arriving to Israel in search for a homeland. This group of strangers on the bus turn into a mirror of society, where their universal need for a sense of belonging is manipulated for political gain. With tender humor and irony, I am looking to address taboos regarding the Jewish and Israeli identity. Even though Birth Right has a critical undertone, this film is a love song to my bleeding home, to the powerful landscapes of my childhood, and to the wounded melting pot of people sharing this land.
