What we’re about
Are you passionate about films and their power to transform societies? Do you want to learn how to tell your own authentic stories for the screen that resonates with others? Then this workshop is perfect for you!
The Authentic storytelling workshops covers the fundamentals of scriptwriting, while being grounded in diasporic and indigenous forms of storytelling practices. While incorporating classical storytelling methodologies such as the three-act structure, we also focus on cultivating your own unique voice and opening up more choices in the stories you tell and how you tell it through more somatic practices. We tap into collective/familial traditions, oral histories and myths, personal experiences and spirituality, dreams, ecology, non-linear time and other multi-layered modalities to craft your most authentic, compelling and richly diverse story, full of memorable and complex characters.
We have taster sessions twice a month a Berlin. Keep an eye out on our events page for the next one.
We look forward to writing with you soon!:)

Join us for an immersive afternoon of Authentic Storytelling!
In this intimate taster session, we cover the basics of screenwriting and explore the art of storytelling through a diasporic and indigenous lens. We use writing prompts that tap into individual identities, non-linear time, ecology and several other somatic modalities to empower you with more choices in the stories you tell and how you tell them.
We keep the group size very small ( a maximum of 4 people), so everyone gets a chance to create and share work in a supportive and inclusive environment. A google drive folder will be shared at the end of the session for attendees to access further writing resources. We will also share information about our full writing course at the end, but there is no obligation to attend.
The session is led by award-winning screenwriter, filmmaker and storyteller Candice Onyeama. Her writing background spans screen, video and digital mediums but her diasporic storytelling practices are universal to all narrative formats.
Whether you are an aspiring filmmaker, writer, or simply someone who loves stories, this workshop will ignite your imagination and leave you inspired.
We meet at a writing cafe in the heart of Kreuzberg. For location details, book and secure your spot on our Eventbrite page. We look forward to writing with you soon!
