In the organizer's words:

✨ CALL FOR APPLICATIONS ✨
You are FLINTA+ and interested in film criticism? Then apply for the filmsis* residency!

For the first time, Sehsüchte is offering a residency in cooperation with the feminist film club @thefilmsisclub, an intensive program dedicated entirely to feminist film criticism!

The filmsis* residency offers 10 FLINTA+ people the opportunity to engage intensively with feminist film criticism and thus strengthen new voices in film criticism.

The residency will take place during the Sehsüchte Filmfestival 2025 (April 23-27, 2025) in Potsdam.

During the festival, you can watch and discuss films together with other FLINTA+ participants and write your own reviews under the guidance of experts. Your texts will be published on the Sehsüchte website and our social media channels!

What can you expect?

• Exclusive workshops and input from freelance journalist and founder of the queer-feminist film magazine FILMLÖWIN Sophie Charlotte Rieger
• Festival passes for Sehsüchte 2025 and free access to all screenings, panels and networking events
• Exchange with other participants and joint discussions on the challenges and opportunities of feminist film criticism
• Publication of your film reviews: The film reviews of films at our festival created during the residency will be published on the Sehsüchte website and our social channels

The residency is aimed at FLINTA+ people aged 18 and over, with or without previous experience.
