Call for entries for Mannheim Meetings/International Coproduction forum

This year's Mannheim Meetings/International Coproduction - one-on-one discussions between film producers from all over the world seeking partners for their new projects - will take place 19 - 23 November 2006 in Mannheim, Germany.

19 Apr 2006

In recent years, more than 40 feature films have been realised with the help of the Mannheim Meetings/International Coproduction, including Zola Maseko's 'Drum'. In 2004, there were over 600 one-on-one meetings.

Producers may attend either with or without a project. All information concerning submitted projects is put together in a catalogue and sent to 500 producers, distributors and sales agents worldwide. Attendees will be able to indicate on a list which projects they are interested in. These lists form the basis for the schedule that is created individually for each participant.

synopsis: 150 words maximum
project description: 750 word maximum
statement of the director on aesthetics and structure: 450 words maximum
biographical notes on the director: 300 words maximum

Attendance is free.

The deadline for registrations is 1 November 2006 and 31 July 2006 for project submissions. Projects from Africa need to be emailed to Michiel Berkel at berksa@global.co.za. More information is available at www.mannheim-filmfestival.com.
