About the Event
The Association of Macedonian Film Distributors together with CINEDAYS European Film Festival Skopje and with support from the Ministry of culture are organizing a mini distribution market from 25 November till 1 December 2020. We`ll try to discuss the current issues the distributors are facing and the whole distribution chain as well and try to present the latest Macedonian works in development with potentially interested sales agents and distributors.
Given the changing economics and dynamics of cinema landscape especially with the covid-19 crisis we dedicate the event completely to film distribution.
The 6-day event is divided into panel discussion, presentation, master-class and pitching sessions providing an opportunity for knowledge exchange and interdisciplinary networking.
