Monday is also day one of the Industry event, and one of the must see things is a masterclass by the great screenwriter Fred Breinersdorfer, the award-winning German writer and screenwriter, who wrote and produced the gut-wrenching Oscar-nominated biography Sophie Scholl: The Final Days. It will be openly screened before the masterclass, starting at 2pm at F22 – New Academic Scene in 22 Frankopanska Street.

The award-winning screenwriter Fred Breinersdorfer will share his thoughts about how to conduct historical research for film needs. How to channel the results into a dramatic plot? What to use, what to leave out? How to fit in fictional elements into the dramatic structure/plot? How to inspire and educate the cast and crew (director, talents etc.) with non-fiction facts? How to present the screenwriting procedure and, finally, how to use this research for promotional purposes?
