The activity is a meeting between screenwriters, producers, and audiovisual creators. It works like this: there are no pre-registrations; you simply arrive at the room. Participants sit across from each other and have only 3 minutes to introduce themselves, exchange ideas about projects, interests, and whatever else seems appropriate at the moment. When the time is up, an alarm sounds, and they move to the next chair. A chance to break the ice and expand your network.
