Supported projects Preparatory Action MEDIA International 2009

Beschrijving:

The European Commission announced €5 million of funding for 2009 to strengthen cultural and commercial relations between Europe’s film industry and film-makers of third countries. The EU funding will enable European film makers, animators and other audiovisual professionals to learn new skills, and promote the industry, by cooperating with professionals outside Europe, and vice-versa.

40 projects will benefit from EU funding. They include joint training, reciprocal promotion, distribution and film screenings and other actions to encourage audiences in Europe and abroad to discover foreign films.

Compared to 2008, this year’s funding and number of selected projects have more than doubled (IP/08/1273). This was made possible thanks to last December’s vote by the European Parliament to increase the budget for international cooperation in the film sector.
