We are thrilled to announce the shortlisted projects for the script call we organised for Qalbi Productions, who were looking for short scripts of up to 10 pages exploring LGBTQIA+ themes.
Finalists:
- JUST SAMANTHA, by Hadyn Worley
- LUCY IN THE MIRROR, by Sarah Owen
- PERMISSION, by Oliver Giggins
- THE BONES ARE GOOD, by Gabe Converse
- VIGIL, by Gethin Dibowski
These screenplays have been forwarded to Qalbi Productions. The writers will either be invited for a meeting to discuss the possibility of getting the script into financing & production or will receive brief written feedback explaining why they decided to pass on the project.
We would also like to publish a list of runner-up projects: these are strong screenplays we particularly appreciated, even though they did not reach the top five.
Runner-up projects:
- FOREVER AND ALWAYS, by Rebecca VanderKooi
- PASSING TRAINS, by Charles Hall

- THE LAST TIME PAUL AND RUBY EVER MET, by Gabriel Bruce
