CASA PIP is a free residency for filmmakers and filmworkers located in the mountains of Central Portugal. The residency offers month-long stays emphasizing experimentation, rest, and autonomous creative practice without formal mentorship, critiques, or script doctors. Residents can work on projects, think through ideas, read, swim, write scripts, experiment with light, color, sound, motion, and time, draw, rehearse, or simply make lunch. The environment prioritizes openness, peace, and connection to nature, with soft afternoon air and local birdsong. The residency encourages artists to follow their personal processes, remove external rules, and allow projects to blossom in individual, unique ways.
