Sales Agent (Bosnia and Herzegovina/Canada) First Cut Lab Ukraine was a programme designed for 3 long feature fiction or documentary films in editing phase from Ukraine.  

The selected teams (director/producer/editor) were offered a creative framework, both benevolent & challenging, where to open up new perspectives and to explore the whole artistic potential of their films.

They screened their rough cut in a private session, and received expert feedbacks from three international film industry advisors, as well as tailor-made advice from consultant editors. The discussions are moderated by Editorial Consultant & Director of First Cut Lab Matthieu Darras.

Advisers chosen were:

Charles Bin (France) – Sales Agent for Best Frient Forever

Sata Cissokho (France) – Acquisition Manager for MEMENTO 

Aleksandar Govedarica (Bosnia and Herzegovina / Canada) – Sales Agent

Once the workshop was over, the participants received a report & a roadmap that can serve as guidance for further editing. Eventually, the ambition of First Cut Lab is to enhance the audience opportunities of the films.
