Thanks to the Europa Distribution – IDFA partnership, attending distributors will also participate in the IDFA activities, including works in progress and special screenings, meetings and networking events, looking for the next documentaries to release.

Europa Distribution will continue discussing with its members, film professionals and experts about the specific challenges of releasing and promoting independent European films with its next activities in February at EFM in Berlin for its next annual conference, and in March at Cartoon Movie in Bordeaux for an event on case studies of animated films released recently, and at Sofia Meetings for its Communication and Negotiation process workshop.
