The deadline for submissions to the upcoming 2023 edition of U.S. in Progress has been extended! You now have until September 15 to submit your projects. Organizers are inviting American narrative feature projects in rough cut seeking finishing funds to apply for the programme. The industry event will take place from November 8-10 during the 14th American Film Festival in Wroclaw, Poland.

The Head of the Polish Film Institute, Radoslaw Śmigulski, will award another $25,000 to be spent on post-production in Poland as well.
