Oliver Stone: One of the joys of going to the movies was that it was trashy, and we should never lose that.
 
Euroscript Writers' News

Hidden Apartheid

on the Screen

A few years ago, a New Zealand writer and film-maker broke the record for the distance travelled to one of our events! Now her powerful and emotionally charged movie has been given a private screening at the ICA this month and is starting on the festival circuit.

Mandrika Rupa came half way round the world to to be trained by us because she had a vitally important story to tell and needed help telling it. A victim of vicious "caste" discrimination because of her Indian low caste background, Rupa was burning to tell the story of how so-called "untouchables" are abused, raped and killed in India and now increasingly around the world.

She went on to book consultancy on her project and was helped to make contacts in the TV industry here. Now her finished film Hidden Apartheid is an impressive and moving testimony to her story, and her determination. Watch for it at festivals near you.

 
Success in Cannes for Euroscript writers.

Joint runners-up in the International Cannes pitching competition for two Euroscript writers this year, plus good reports from other members.

Excellent pitches led to Penny Macleod and Will Dingli winning joint second place with their strong performances in Raindance's pitching competition in Cannes 2010. Other of Euroscript's members also had very positive showings. These followed the Euroscript pre-Cannes evening, Selling Your Script training and Pitching with Power Masterclasses, which were scheduled for the weeks leading up to the world's greatest film festival and market.

Cannes is still then number one place to strut your stuff. A number of other Euroscript writers, directors and producers have had an excellent Cannes this year and we are still receiving emails about their successes.

One writer gained serious interest from two major agents who have now asked to see his work, as well as a number of producers. Other writers made excellent contacts and are currently sending treatments and scripts, following their work at Euroscript trainings.
