The RAW 2025 call offers two residency modalities: Creative Residency for filmmakers and Critical Residency for critics and theorists of documentary cinema. Both are part of an integrated program that includes phases such as the ARCHÉ→WORK lab (Doclisboa), residencies in Lisbon, the Doc’s Kingdom seminar (Odemira), and the MÁRGENES/WORK lab (Madrid). The Creative Residency targets documentary feature projects in development, production, or post-production, providing workshops, mentorship, and spaces to advance audiovisual creation. The Critical Residency supports young critics developing research or writing projects on nonfiction cinema, offering tutoring, festival immersion, and specialized guidance. The call is unified for both modalities, with specific forms and requirements, taking place between October and November 2025 in various venues in Portugal and Spain. The program aims to strengthen Ibero-American documentary cinema through training, exchange, and creative support.
