In their sixth year, the EFM Industry Debates provide again a unique opportunity during the European Film Market for producers, buyers and film financiers to discuss current trends and issues relevant to the international film industry.

 

This year, the professional event will highlight the growing importance of crowd funding for the financing, marketing and distribution of films; new opportunities for non-English language cinema in the world of new media; and the role of BRIC in a changing financing landscape.
