The fifth edition of Less Is More announces its selection
The participants in Less Is More 2021
The fifth edition of Less Is More (LIM), the European development programme for limited feature films, has announced its selection, which consists of 16 script projects and 12 Development angels. Despite these troubling times, a total of 350 applicants from more than 70 countries, including a handful of new ones from around the world, applied. LIM is a training and coaching programme dedicated to script development for first, second or third feature-film projects. Driven by Le Groupe Ouest s methodological approach and involving a very intense, eight-month-long process, LIM s philosophy is built around the idea that the introduction of self-imposed limitations early on in the writing process can lead to accelerated creativity for filmmakers.

While Tet – the Vietnamese Lunar New Year – is typically Nam Cong’s busiest time of year, business has been slow over the past few months due to the COID-19 pandemic.
