The Les Arcs European Film Festival has announced the 20 projects selected for the Arc 1950 Coproduction Village (December 6-8), held during the festival.

The three-day event is open to all those interested in financial or production participation in one of the selected projects, in a professional but casual atmosphere. The Co-production Village will also offer several conferences and one-on-one meetings. The latter are intended to help selected project producers meet potential partners (producers, sales agents, distributors, exhibitors, regional funds, and so forth).

On December 6, Peter Dinges, CEO of the General Federal Film Board (FFA), will talk about German Financing and Co-productions, followed by Cine Regio, European Regional Funds and Co-productions.

December 7 will offer a case study on Distribution of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo [+see also:
