PRODUCERS ON THE MOVE 2007 at the Cannes International Film Festival
21 highly promising producers from all over Europe participated in EFP’s PRODUCERS ON THE MOVE programme 2007 (May 20th – 21st) during the Cannes International Film Festival. For the eighth year now, European Film Promotion (EFP) supported selected producers in their international networking through this EU MEDIA Programme-supported initiative.
EFP offered this group of young European producers a comprehensive platform, providing them and their productions with international attention via a promotional campaign during the Festival in Cannes. A round-table meeting and a co-production lunch for producers from all over Europe gave them a professional forum to discuss current projects and lay the foundation for future collaborations.
EFP’s member organisations selected the following producers to be part of this year’s programme:
