Albanian National Center of Cinematography launches the first Balkan Film Market

The Albanian National Center of Cinematography (ANCC) is launching the first edition of the Balkan Film Market (BFM), which aims to connect film and industry professionals from around Europe and the countries of the Western Balkans. The market will be held from 2-7 October in Tirana and is supported by Eurimages.

Apart from becoming an important industry event, the BFM also intends to be a meeting point that will further promote cooperation between professionals in a rich and dense region that is yet to be discovered. According to the provisional schedule, some of the events include a discussion by the MEDIA desks of the Western Balkans, under the Creative Europe initiative, a pitching session for minority co-production projects from the Balkans, and meetings with the leading public and private European and Balkan audiovisual institutions.

Further details on the participants and the events at the first BFM, as well as confirmation of the schedule, will be announced soon.
