Description

In this special Masterclass produced by NCE (Netherlands Association of Cinema Editors) and IDFA, award-winning editor, producer and director Atanas Georgiev invites us into the world of documentary filmmaking, where editing is as much an art as it is a craft. With notable works including Honeyland (the first ever film to be nominated both for Best Documentary Feature and Best International Feature Film at the Oscars, in 2020), Hollywoodgate (IDFA 2023), and Against the Tide (Sundance 2023), Georgiev has earned international recognition for his exceptional storytelling talent in the editing room. Throughout the session, moderator Annelotte Medema and Atanas Georgiev will break down key decisions that shape the narrative, tone, and pacing of his work. As a unique feature of this masterclass, Georgiev will share deleted scenes and earlier versions of sequences from his editing timelines, offering a rare insight into how films evolve through the editing process.

Beyond his editing expertise, Georgiev will also delve into his role as a producer, revealing his secret skills and strategies for connecting documentaries with large audiences around the world. From the creative decisions in post-production to navigating the business side of filmmaking, this masterclass offers a deep and inspiring exploration of how powerful documentaries are crafted and delivered to viewers worldwide.
