About This Residency

A residency for international filmmakers and film workers in the mountains of Portugal

Experience & Atmosphere

Founded by filmmakers and designed for filmmakers, CASA PIP is a residency in a remote village nestled within the Portuguese mountains. CASA PIP offers filmmakers peace and space to work independently in any capacity they require, giving residents sole access to the entire house for work periods of up to a month. CASA PIP is an unstructured, no-rules residency. Residents may use the space to write, research, edit, experiment, play, think, or rest, depending on their specific creative needs.

Mission & Goals

CASA PIP is founded and run by filmmakers. We believe in the irreplaceable value of experimentation towards the conception and creation of great art, and have designed this residency to offer filmmakers the time, peace, space, and general rulelessness to move meaningfully forward on a project, a thought, an experiment, research, practice, and more and more and more. We also encourage residents to slow down and play, and welcome applications from people whose undertaking is simply to rest and recover, which we consider vital to the creative process.
