SCREENWRITING WORKSHOP

An industry-led workshop designed to boost your screenwriting skills for projects to be shot or produced in Athens and other stunning Greek locations.

Industry Days

A networking platform connecting local talent with top-tier international producers.

The Vision

The Owl is a mentoring and networking event which includes a screenwriting workshop and an industry meetup created by the Athens Film Office to help develop film and TV projects with international appeal, leveraging Athens’ unique advantages for the industry.
This annual event targets early-career screenwriters who have had a film or TV show distributed and are ready to take their careers to an international level. It aims to bridge the gap for screenwriters outside major global film hubs, connecting them with top-tier, commercially successful producers.

Is It for You?

We seek diverse screenwriters developing audience-driven feature films and TV series that blend artistic vision with commercial potential, and that could be adapted to be produced or shot in Greece.
Entries are judged by a committee of experienced film and TV professionals based on the writer’s track record, script quality, originality, writing style, and marketability.
Greece’s diverse landscapes—ranging from bustling city streets to pristine beaches—make it an ideal location for a variety of productions. A project doesn’t need to be set in Greece to be shot here.
