The annual Durban
FilmMart recently celebrated five years as Africa’s leading film co-production
and funding market, and is calling all African filmmakers to submit their film
projects for 2015 DFM selections.
“DFM 2014 has been
an exceptionally successful event with amazing talent coming through,
innovative workshops taking place and exciting opportunities presented. We look
forward to the submissions for next year’s DFM and encourage African filmmakers
to take a chance and put themselves out there.” says Durban Film Office’s Toni
Monty.
DFM has worked with
95 official projects making their debuts at the four-day event in Durban over
the past five years. Many DFM alumni have secured further funding grants and
screened at film festivals around the world, establishing Durban FilmMart as a
key platform for budding African filmmakers to propel their film making careers.
Durban FilmMart
2015 will select 10 fiction feature and 10 documentary feature projects in
development to participate in the 6th Durban FilmMart taking place July 17 to
20, 2015.
Interested African
filmmakers are encouraged to submit their projects by February 15, 2015. It is
