Hi everyone!

I'm M. O. Mar, an aspiring first-time writer-director based in the Amsterdam area.

I'm currently developing ONE DAY ONE, a 12–15-minute psychological drama exploring ambition, human connection, and the choices that shape our lives.

The screenplay is drafted, and I'm preparing to apply for Shortcutz Greenlight, a programme supporting emerging filmmakers in the Netherlands.

To complete the application, I'm looking to connect with a producer and cinematographer who would be interested in joining the project.

The Greenlight application deadline is 11 November 2026, so I'm hoping to connect with potential collaborators soon.

Further details about the story and creative vision can be shared privately.

Wat bieden wij?
This is currently an unpaid independent short-film project. No production funding or financial compensation has been secured.

I'm preparing an application for Shortcutz Greenlight, which may provide access to filmmaking equipment, mentorship, and industry support if the project is selected. Selection is not guaranteed.

I'm offering the opportunity to collaborate creatively from an early stage, contribute to an original film, develop practical experience, and receive appropriate screen credits.

My aim is to build a respectful, inclusive team where everyone's creative input is valued.

Any future production commitments, working arrangements, and expenses will be discussed transparently before proceeding.
