Deadline: October 12, 2016.
The Call for
Project Submissions for the 14th Berlinale Co-Production Market (February
12-14, 2017) has been announced. The Market will take place as part of the 67th
Berlin International Film Festival (February 9-19).
“Once again, we are
excited about receiving your submissions,” say the organisers, ”and look
forward to reading fresh, promising projects, which are ready to be presented
at an international co-production market!”
Experienced
producers from around the world are invited to submit their new feature-length
fiction projects with a budget range from 1 to 20 million Euros, with at least
30% of financing (or the local production funding) already in place, for which
they are seeking international co-production and financing partners.
This year, a budget
exception aims to support applications from regions where films are produced
with lower average budgets, or which are facing particular challenges in film
financing: the minimum budget is €750,000 for projects from the World Cinema
Fund supported regions Latin America, Central America, the Caribbean, Africa,
the Middle East, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and the Caucasus, as well as for
projects from Greece, Spain, Portugal and Southeast Europe.
The organisers are
again also looking for particularly promising “Berlinale Directors” projects. Projects
by directors, whose previous films were selected for the Berlinale can be
submitted also if they do not yet have 30% of the financing in place. This way,
the organisers aim to support great new projects by these proven directors at
an early stage.
The deadline for
project submissions is October 12, 2016.
This year’s
selection will be made by December 22, 2016 and will be officially announced in
January.
