European Film Forum: Teaming Up for Wider Audiences
Monday 14 May, 15:00-17:30
Salon des Ambassadeurs, Palais du Festival
Panel 2: Networking for more audiences
Europa Cinemas is an example of support to a European network that has worked successfully. The Europa Cinemas network was created thanks to the support of MEDIA with the aim of making European works available across borders at a time when demand for such works was not necessarily there. What have we learnt from Europa Cinemas and how can we use this example to create other European networks of collaboration that promote European works and increase audiences?
Speakers:
Madeleine Probst, Vice President, Europa Cinemas network
Bobby Allen, Vice President of Content, MUBI
Stefano Massenzi, Head of Acquisitions and Business Affairs, Lucky Red
Daniela Elstner, Managing Director, Doc and Film
Closing remarks by Giuseppe Abbamonte, Director for Media policy, DG CONNECT, European Commission
