Green Film Lab es una convocatoria internacional organizada por TorinoFilmLab, con sede en Italia, orientada a profesionales del sector audiovisual interesados en integrar prácticas de sostenibilidad ambiental en sus procesos de producción. El laboratorio se enfoca en fortalecer conocimientos y herramientas vinculadas a la producción verde, sin restringirse a un género narrativo específico.
La convocatoria está abierta a proyectos de largometraje, documental y series de televisión, en distintas etapas de desarrollo o producción temprana, siempre que estén vinculados a equipos o profesionales que deseen aplicar criterios sostenibles en el ámbito audiovisual. Se trata de un taller especializado, más cercano a un laboratorio de formación que a un espacio de pitch o mercado.
El programa se realizará de manera presencial en la ciudad de Turín, Italia, entre el 17 y el 19 de abril de 2026. La fecha límite de postulación es el 20 de febrero de 2026. La convocatoria acepta postulaciones internacionales y está dirigida a profesionales del cine, la televisión y áreas afines comprometidos con la sostenibilidad en la industria audiovisual.
