Meet the Filmmakers: Bridging the Gap 2026

14th October 2026 / Bridging the Gap, News

We’re thrilled to announce the cohort selected to embark on a new Bridging the Gap journey!

The scheme supports emerging talent from Scotland and Northern Ireland to develop their documentary ideas and take the next steps in their practice.

This group will develop their projects through a series of  workshops led by acclaimed international directors, challenging and inspiring their creative approaches in a supportive and collaborative environment. As their ideas take shape, each filmmaker will pitch to a panel of industry professionals, with the opportunity to secure a commission and bring their documentary to life.

Meet the participants:

 

Bridging the Gap is Scotland’s leading documentary talent development scheme supported by Screen Scotland and Northern Ireland Screen.
