Promoting Latin American Fiction Films in Post-Production Stage
This is Ventana Sur’s section intended for the promotion of Latin American fictional feature films in their post-production stage.
It seeks to link the participating films (as well as those selected for Copia Final & FIP) with sales agents, international film festival programmers, producers and film industry managers registered for Ventana Sur.
The curators will select six films which will compete, among other incentives, for Post-production Services Awards. The selected films will be screened in movie theaters, being also available as Catch Up Screenings through Cinando for Ventana Sur’s registered participants within a month after the Market’s ending. The six chosen films will also be showcased in Ventana Sur’s Industry in Progress Catalog.
Primer Corte films which, during the registration process, the section’s curators judge to be in a “close to completion” stage –and therefore may not need post-production awards– could be invited to participate in the Copia Final section.
Films registered for Primer Corte which for different reasons stand out, may also be invited to participate in the Films in Progress section. These films will be highlighted by showcasing them in the Market’s video-library and providing exclusive access to them through Cinando to producers, sales agents, distributors and international film festival programmers registered at Ventana Sur for up to one month after the Market’s ending. These films will also be showcased in Ventana Sur’s Industry in Progress Catalog.
It is a selection of six recently completed Latin American fiction feature films, still unreleased, without premiere inside or outside their countries of production, and in search for sales agents, distributors and international festival programmers.
The films are directly invited by the curators of Primer Corte and Ventana Sur’s advisers.
