Networking in Cannes

    Aspiring producers are on the move this year in Cannes. Selected by European Film Promotion's member organizations (EFP), twenty-three ambitious producers from across Europe are participating in EFP's PRODUCERS ON THE MOVE 2010 programme (May 15th-18th) during the Cannes International Film Festival.

     The selected participants have been discussing the content, planning and financing of their European-based film projects during the three-day programme.  The past years have seen up to 50% of the participants planning co-productions together. The initiative, which is financially backed by the MEDIA Programme of the European Union, has become a label for young successfull producers over the course of the past eleven years.
