Now a key event for film and audiovisual co-production, the Alentours Forum – Rhinish Co-Production Meeting has just launched a call for projects for its 2023 edition, which will unfold in Strasbourg (at the Maillon Theatre) from 27 to 29 June.

This year, the Forum Alentours will once more offer two and a half days of pitching sessions, One on One meetings, panel discussions and workshops.

Producers looking for co-production partners in border countries can submit a project under development before April 9, 2023. 25 projects in French or German language seeking co-producers in partner countries will be selected and published in the bilingual (French/German) catalog of the Forum. Project leads will also have the opportunity to pitch their project in English on June 29th in Strasbourg before an audience of producers and other potential financial partners.

The Forum Alentours – Rhine co-production market is co-organised by the Eurométropole de Strasbourg, the Région Grand Est, the Medien-und Filmgesellschaft Baden-Württemberg, in the framework of the INTERREG CinEuro project, in collaboration with the Europe Creative offices of the border countries (Belgium, Germany, Luxembourg, the MEDIA Desk Switzerland) and Arte Geie.
