Our activities support filmmakers through all stages of completion – development, funding, production, post-production, and distribution.

We closely work with key int. festivals, broadcasters, distributors, sales agents, markets, or training initiatives and serve as the GATEWAY TO EAST EUROPEAN DOCUMENTARY FILM.
