Polish Television is inviting filmmakers and TV creatives from Central and Eastern Europe to submit their projects for the pitching sessions at this year’s Heart of Europe Forum, taking place October 27-30 in Warsaw.

Pitching sessions will be held in four categories: feature film, series, documentary, and, for the first time this year, performing arts. Projects at any stage of development are welcome. As in previous years, up to 10 projects in each category will be selected from the submissions and presented in Warsaw before an international jury and an audience of leading industry professionals.

The call is open to creators from Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, Georgia, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, and Bulgaria.

In past editions, the Heart of Europe Forum has welcomed jurors from renowned organizations including MIDPoint Institute, MIPCOM, Millennium Docs Against Gravity, NEM Dubrovnik / NEM Zagreb, Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival, Yle, Camerimage Festival, Beta Film, Serial Killer and Chicago International Film Festival. To enter your project into the pitching competition, please complete the submission form on the Heart of Europe website.

The call for projects will remain open until August 15, 2026.
