Spotlight On

Where projects meet the industry.

Spotlight On is the EFM’s new programme label, designed to connect projects in development or in post-production with key industry professionals. It offers a dedicated space to present your work in a focused professional setting.

Each session provides a 60-minute slot in a fully equipped screening environment, supported by the EFM’s technical team. The format allows projects to be seen and to spark meaningful connections with potential partners, distributors and decision-makers from across the international film landscape.

Discover all Spotlight On and Spotlight On: Animation events in our EFM Event Schedule.
