Story Lab at the 61st Solothurn Film Festival

The Migros Culture Percentage Story Lab is the main partner of the industry programme ‘SO PRO’ at the 61st Solothurn Film Festival. We are happy to look back on a successful kick-off event: under the title ‘From idea to collaboration – young talent and production companies’, the Story Lab invited filmmakers and producers to discuss challenges and possible solutions for successful collaboration.

The dialogue continued during the concluding networking lunch, sparking a lively exchange of diverse perspectives. We hope this will extend beyond Solothurn.
