OPEN DOORS 2015: FOCUS ON MAGHREB

Dear EAVE producers,

EAVE is delighted to continue its successful partnership with OPEN DOORS taking place from August 8-11, 2015 during the Locarno Film Festival (August 5-15, 2015). At the same time, the successful Locarno Industry Days will be organized again.

EAVE producers (with special priority to producers interested in coproducing with the Maghreb region) 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 (2-4 nights).

In 2015 the OPEN DOORS section will focus on  four countries from the Maghreb: Algeria, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia. 

A dozen 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.

Please confirm by March 30, 2015 by e-mail to eave@eave.org if you are interested in principle. Once the selection of projects has been made public, we will invite you to confirm your wish to attend.  

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions!
