VS GUIONES is the section within Ventana Sur – Río de la Plata designed to welcome and support emerging screenwriters and their projects from across Latin America, fostering spaces for dialogue and exchange with different sectors of the audiovisual industry.

From December 1 to 5, the selected projects will receive personalized mentorship from acclaimed screenwriters such as Florencia Percia and Mariana Wainstein; a masterclass by Natalia Santa, the renowned Colombian screenwriter and director with international recognition; and an open pitching session for accredited Ventana Sur participants, where they will present their projects before key industry figures.
