DISPLACED WOMEN PITCH

A programme supporting women filmmakers shaped by displacement — from story development to pitch.

Next edition coming soon.

Empowering Women

Mission

Lab Films is a story-driven platform by Lab Films Global, focused on narratives shaped by displacement.

At a time when migration is politicised, simplified, and often dehumanised, we focus on who gets to tell the story — and how it is experienced.

We work with filmmakers, artists, and creators who have lived displacement — supporting them to develop and share their perspectives across film, exhibitions, live events, and immersive formats.

From pitch programmes to public activations, we create spaces where these stories are not only told, but encountered.

Because the way these narratives are shaped doesn’t just influence culture — it shapes how societies see, accept, or reject the people within them.
