Film projects looking for coproductions

Producers of the selected projects will have the opportunity to present their works to professionals from the international film industry at a pitching session followed by one-on-one meetings with attendees interested in their projects.
Attendance at the event will be open to all accredited members.
The travel and accommodation in Buenos Aires of the main producer (one per project) will be covered by the organization.
