The Lao Filmmakers Fund 2025 announced on 19 November that it will support three short films and help develop four feature-length projects. The fund, backed by the Heinrich Böll Foundation Southeast Asia and the Luxembourg Embassy in Vientiane, partnered with Blue Chair and LanXang Shorts to run the first LanXang Shorts Film Camp, along with a pitch contest and production awards. LanXang Shorts, which was set up to train and encourage new Lao filmmakers, held a multi-day Film Camp this year focused on practical skills and mentorship. The camp ended with a pitch competition, where three projects were selected to receive production funding from the LFF. This year’s program also put a spotlight on women filmmakers from Laos, Thailand, and Singapore. Blue Chair said the partnership reflects its ongoing commitment to working with groups that aim to strengthen the Lao film community.
