The projects were selected by Pustnik co-founder Andreea Borțun (writer/director, Romania) and film producer Bianca Oana (Romania/Germany) from the 67 submissions received from 35 countries.

This year, Pustnik is continuing its partnership with the European Short Pitch short script development programme, by offering a place in the residence to a recent ESP alumni with whom it shares a similar vision.

Pustnik is organised by the T.E.T.A Association and it is co-founded by the Romanian Administration of the National Cultural Fund (AFCN).
