Call for applications
Dear EAVE producers,
EAVE is delighted to continue its partnership with OPEN DOORS taking place from August 4-7, 2012 during the 65th Locarno Film Festival (August 1-11, 2012).
At the same time, the Locarno Industry Days will be organized again.
EAVE producers have the unique possibility to participate in OPEN DOORS in order to meet the selected filmmakers and producers and to come and discover the Locarno film festival. The selected producers will be invited by the festival providing accreditation & accommodation during the event (4 nights, August 4-7).
In 2012 the OPEN DOORS section will focus on francophone Sub-saharan Africa. Around 10 projects will be selected and the directors and producers of the chosen projects will be present in Locarno and available for pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings.
The selection will be announced in Cannes and the project information will be available online in a protected area of the Locarno Film Festival's website www.pardo.ch
In the framework of OPEN DOORS, it will also be possible to request meetings with the 6 filmmakers of the Cannes CINEFONDATION.
Please confirm by April 16, 2012 by e-mail to satu@eave.org if you are interested in principle. Once the selection of projects has been made public, we will invite you to confirm your attendance. Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions!
