Mentoring sessions are designed to give you in-depth support in the production of your documentary.
A seasoned producer will review your brief and meet with you one-on-one for an hour to discuss the artistic and logistical challenges involved. She’ll also help you develop a compelling pitch that conveys the best image of your film. In just a few words, you’ll be able to attract the interest of future backers!
The mentoring meetings will take place in December 2024.

Director, producer and editor, Joëlle Arseneau‘s cinematic career has always been centered on people and encounters. She studied cinema and management at university in Montreal. In 2009, Joëlle founded Le pied marin to produce films with complete creative independence, respecting the vision of their creators. Today, she continues to work as an independent producer, while remaining fully committed to her film projects. Joëlle is also a recipient of the Academy of Canadian Cinema and Television’s (ACCT) National Apprenticeship Program, which has enabled her to carry out numerous internships in editing on a wide range of productions. Her instinctive interest in documentary gradually broadened to include fiction. En tête de ligne (2020) is the first feature film she co-signed as director and producer. Since fall 2022, Joëlle has been teaching film production at Université Laval.
Rocío Barba Fuentes
Trained at EICTV (Cuba) and L’inis, producer Rocío B. Fuentes worked in the Caribbean before settling in Montreal, where she joined the production company Les Films Outsiders and co-founded Les films Cosmos. A Eurodoc graduate with valuable international experience, she has produced several short and feature-length documentaries and collaborated with other companies as production manager. Her films and projects, both fiction and documentary, have been presented at international festivals and markets such as the Trinidad & Tobago International Film Festival, Festival Regard, Festival du court métrage de Clermont-Ferrand, TIFF Filmmaker Lab, CPH:Dox Forum and HotDocs Forum, among others.
