Deadline: November 25, 2011
WHEN EAST MEETS WEST is a new co-production forum organized by the FVG AUDIOVISUAL FUND and the TRIESTE FILM FESTIVAL, in collaboration with EAVE, EURIMAGES and Central European Initiative. It will bring together 20 selected producers with one project in development suitable for an international co-production coming from Eastern European countries*, Italy and - only for the 2012 edition - the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden).
ELIGIBLE PROJECTS
Projects should be feature films or documentaries in development with a potential for an international co-production, preferably with a minimum of 20% of the budget already in place. Even though there are three main areas involved (East Europe, Italy and Nordic countries), producers can apply with projects suitable for a co-production between at least two of these regions.

All documents must be in English and must be sent via email before November 25, 2011 to info@wemw.it
SELECTION
Selection will be done in collaboration with EAVE on several criteria: producers CVs, company track record, potential of the treatment and international dimension of the project. Selected projects will be announced in December and selected producers will be offered travel and accommodation in Trieste.
PITCHING INFO
Selected producers will have the opportunity to pitch their project in front of an international industry audience (potential co-producers, commissioning editors, sales agents, distributors, film funds representatives and financiers from both areas) in the framework of a closed pitching event.
