The 2nd Mediterranean Co-production Forum will take place from October 30th to November 1st in the 6th arrondissement of Marseille. The event is organized by Méditalents, an association helping film-makers from all Mediterranean countries to write or develop their projects. Through this Forum the association hopes to build a co-production and cultural network.
The Forum is a meeting place for co-producers, distributors and international investment funds. During this special weekend, film-makers will be able to present their projects to key industry players, with sessions for directors and producers to show their films to obtain finance. There will also be a chance to have one-on-one meetings.
