About LIM
LIM | Less is More is the European feature film development program for committed filmmakers in a changing world.At the heart of this adventure is the fundamental idea that using the concept of limitation is not only a matter of budget, but becomes a necessity both to enhance creativity and to rethink how independent cinema is conceived in a time of deep ecological and political concern.
