El Taller-Residencia Slow Cinema del IbizaCineFest se llevará a cabo del 20 al 28 de febrero de 2026 en Ibiza, España. Esta actividad está diseñada como un laboratorio creativo y formativo, centrado en la exploración del cine contemplativo, conocido como slow cinema. No es una competencia de obras preexistentes; los participantes desarrollarán y producirán una pieza audiovisual durante la duración del taller, como un retrato de la ciudad o un autorretrato.
La convocatoria está abierta a personas de cualquier nacionalidad, sin restricciones de género cinematográfico, enfocándose en la práctica y la observación más que en la presentación de proyectos terminados. Los asistentes recibirán formación teórica y práctica en lenguaje cinematográfico, montaje, observación y técnicas de filmación, fomentando el desarrollo de una mirada personal y estilo propio.
El taller incluye alojamiento en Ibiza, traslados internos y acreditación para las actividades del festival, aunque no cubre transporte internacional ni equipos de grabación personales. La inscripción se realiza directamente a través del organizador, y los interesados deben postular antes de la fecha límite establecida de manera directa por el festival.

The VdR–Work in Progress call from the Visions du Réel festival targets feature-length documentaries in the advanced stages of post-production. Projects must have at least 10 minutes of edited material and will have the chance to be presented to industry professionals such as distributors, sales agents, TV channels, and festivals.
Projects from all over the world are eligible, as long as they are feature-length documentaries nearing completion.

Attendance of both the director and producer at the event is mandatory if selected.
The main goal is to facilitate professional connections, access to finishing funds, and support the film’s distribution and festival strategy. Applications are submitted online in English, with English subtitles required for audiovisual material in other languages, and a small participation fee applies. Selected projects receive accreditation, pitch training, and participation in presentations and one-on-one meetings with industry professionals.
