The third edition is accompanied by an extraordinary novelty: the participants will present their projects within the 18th TFL Meeting Event, ithe TorinoFilmLab co-production market which will be held in Turin in November.
Boost IT Lab is aimed at Italian projects with high international co-production potential, presented by an Italian production house, and international projects looking for Italian production partners, especially to those seeking minority Italian partners.
To apply, producers must submit a feature film project (fiction or creative documentary) under development. The teams of the 8 selected projects will be involved in an exclusive activity plan, curated by Francesco Giai Via, between the November 17 and 20, 2025 in Turin, according to the consolidated TFL methodology, which emphasizes practical project work and intensive exchanges with international experts, institutions and other participants.
