Vanessa Kirby‘s Aluna Entertainment production company has announced the return of Aluna Labs, the development program it launched last year to support emerging female filmmakers.
The second round of the initiative will take place in London and is open to female-identifying writers, directors and producers from across the U.K., who can apply with a treatment for a debut feature they wish to develop through the program.
“We created Aluna Labs to provide a tailored and nurturing environment for women aspiring to make ambitious debut features,” said Lauren Dark, who co-founded Aluna Entertainment with Kirby and her sister Juliet Kirby, who later joined the company as an executive. “This August, we are thrilled to welcome 15 new participants to enhance their narrative pitches through specialized development sessions, industry panels and professional mentorship. We spend time with each participant before the course begins to be clear on the nature of support needed for each project, and tailor the sessions to be highly specific to those needs.”
