Focus Territory dinner and party

FIPADOC holds a special reception dedicated to Focus territory (in 2024: Italy), taking place in a spacious and prestigious venue. The purpose is to invite some of the V4 professionals attending and other key European professionals so as to create a closed high-profile networking event. To optimize networking opportunities and create further links outside the professional events, the participation to the night is allowed only upon invitation, sent exclusively to the Focus delegation, V4 delegation and key professionals in the French & European Industry. https://fipadoc.com/en/journees-professionnelles/meet-match-visegrad

How to coproduce with France session

The How to coproduce with France session offers exciting opportunities for professionals from V4 countries and all around Europe. The session, moderated by a CNC representative (French National Centre of Cinema), introduced key players within the French industry and highlighted with case studies of successful coproductions delivered by experimented producers. Through a presentation of different coproduction patterns and main rules in France, the session will give the international professionals attending keys and ideas to start collaboration and design their coproduction ambitions more efficiently. It will open to all accredited professionals attending Industry days. https://fipadoc.com/en/journees-professionnelles/meet-match-visegrad

International Pitching Forum

Presentation of documentary projects from V4 and other European countries. Over the course of two days 24 international projects will be presented to a large professional audience (commissioning editors, distributors and sales agents, producers, funders… around 200 people). Inside this selection, we plan on receiving quite a few projects from Visegrad professionals (thanks to the 50% waiver we will hand to the professionals who request it) and having between one and three V4 projects in the final selection. As for comparison, we had 3 V4 projects presented and pitched last year (January 2023) • THE WORLD IS (NOT) A MINE (director Natalia Koniarz, producer Katarzyna Dudarewicz) • SON OF THE STREETS (director Muhammed Almughanni, producer Rashid Abdelhamid) • SONGS OF SISTERHOOD (director Hanka Nobis, producer Esther Van Messel) Besides, as part of our agreement with DOK.fest München, we selected in May 2023 the project THE VALLEY OF WIDOWS (directed by Miro Jelok and produced by Katarína Jonisová, Vintafilms, Slovakia), to be part of our International Coproduction Forum. In 2024, we will present 4 projects from Visegrad https://fipadoc.com/en/journees-professionnelles/meet-match-visegrad
