Circle

Circle, the training platform for women and gender-expansive filmmakers, is moving into XR and immersive media with a new international program developed alongside Onassis ONX. Emmy and Peabody Award-winning documentarian Katerina Cizek has been appointed head of studies for the initiative.

“Circle Expanded Orbit” will run Nov. 21–26, in Athens, bringing together creators working across XR, mixed reality, VR, AR, AI and game-based storytelling. Applications are open to filmmakers, artists and multidisciplinary storytellers working alone or in pairs; the deadline is July 23, with shortlisted candidates invited to interview in late August.
