23 projects at the European Producers Club Forum
Future alliances will be forged today in the France Film Commission Pavilion, which this afternoon hosts the 34th Co-production Forum organised by the European Producers Club (see interview with director general Alexandra Lebret) who have the satisfaction of seeing one of the projects selected in last year’s forum included in official competition at the current Cannes Film Festival: Il Divo [+see also:

A total of 23 film projects from 14 different countries have been selected for the "tailor-made" Forum, an idea put in practice over the last year by the Club. The aim is to make the events more worthwhile, with meetings between potential partners arranged well in advance and targeted towards the specific needs of each project. The Club also actively follows the progress of negotiations begun during the course of the year following the Forum.
