More than ever, we need stories that can make us think, excite us, or wake us up in the crazy context we live in.The LIM2024 Selectionis the flurry of our deep desire to work on developing stories that can offer new perspectives into today’s madness.
With LIM | Less is More, we try every year to support in this delicate moment of development stage, authors who understand the importance that their work can mean for the human beings around them. It is not just about entertainment, we believe that cinema should and can touch people’s deepest heartstrings.
And so, here we are, on tour in this Europe of Cinema, this Europe of Stories, with its blurred borders.
All the projects have a point of view different from each other, but which reflect the concerns, dreams, hopes, fears and projections of these directors and screenwriters, who feel the need to collaborate with each other and with LIM, to offer the best development possible for each of their projects.
Whether they come from Ukraine*, Northern Europe, the Mediterranean, the Balkans or Central Europe, the common goal is to be able to communicate in the best possible way what is precious within them and that may resonate with viewers and all those who believe in the power of stories.
* As in 2023, LIM team and Creative Europe — MEDIA – with logistical support of the French CNC – have decided to join forces in order to support three Ukrainian filmmakers (in partnership with Terrarium), among the sixteen projects selected for LIM2024.
