The Impact Lab caters for producers and directors whose projects raise crucial and timely issues such as human rights, the environment, gender inequality, social conflicts, and human tragedies, and have the potential to influence society.

We live in a world that needs change. It's not enough to just make a film. It needs to be seen and discussed, and sometimes, even that is not sufficient. We need to help the protagonist. We need to change laws or reach out to international organizations. Impact Lab teaches how to achieve these goals.

The lab tutors are experts who have influenced policy and helped real people. Their films have received major international awards, but most importantly, they know how to develop and implement strategies that lead to real change. The lab will help the authors of projects, touching upon socially significant topics, learn how to promote their films and create a roadmap for solving the problems they address. Cinema is a powerful art form, and we aim to harness its full potential to make the world a better place.
