Pop Up Film Residency VILNIUS is delighted to welcome writer-director Gaël Kamilindi for the 7th edition of the residency in Lithuania.
A uniquely collaborative initiative created by filmmakers for filmmakers, Pop Up Film Residency offers an individualized mentorship programme, tailor-made for one specific project and shaped around the needs of each selected filmmaker.
This year, we are very happy to host Gaël Kamilindi with his project THE ZEBRA’S SHADOW – a Rwanda/Switzerland production selected as part of Pop Up Film Residency’s 2026 programme. The project will take part in a three-week residency in Vilnius with a dedicated mentor.
We look forward to continuing another inspiring edition of the residency in Vilnius, bringing together filmmakers, mentors, and creative partners from around the world.
Pop Up Film Residency VILNIUS is supported by Vilnius City Municipality. We are grateful for their continued support of this project throughout the years.
