Call for Filmmakers - Our 2025/2026 Residency in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam *Applications now open for The Weight of Mountains Filmmaking Residency* A Development and Thematic Residency Program for Film or Screen-based Media Artists *Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. December 2025 - February 2026*
The Weight of Mountains (TWOM) is a nomadic artist residency for filmmakers and screen based media artists, immersing artists in a new location every 2 - 4 years. Our next residency will take place in Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam from 2nd December 2025 to 28th February 2026. The residency program aims to bring together like minds with unique voices, perspectives, and backgrounds in film while enabling site and environment to act as a character, provocation, portal, or cinematic presence through immersion into global locations. We collaborate with local arts organisations, arts collectives, and/or local filmmakers. We try to harmonise the interests of filmmakers with the communities we take them to and contribute to the broader film community in each region. As we reinvigorate the residency for 2025/2026, we’re inspired to reimagine The Weight of Mountains framework in Ho Chi Minh City — offering artists a provocative challenge: how can they engage with the layered complexity, cultural intersections, historical echoes, and contemporary energy distinct to Ho Chi Minh City? The residency includes accommodation, residency hub/studio space at A Farm International Art Residency, various screenings, and networking events, as well as the support of a local curator in Ho Chi Minh City, and the TWOM team. *Applications close 2 June, 2025.* *To apply please visit: **www.twomfilm.com* <http://www.twomfilm.com/> You can also find all information including costs, supported place information, and eligibility criteria on our website.
