Presentation of International Federation of Film Distributors’ Associations FIAD
Many film titles continue to drift around the marketplace in search of homes. It`s never been harder to buy and sell movies than in a year when the very future of distribution is an open question.
Alina Popescu, Secretary General of FIAD, will hold an online presentation of the work of FIAD and the challenges of distributors on European level in these challenging times for all and the planned strategies and measures to help the film industry get through the crisis.
The International Federation of Film Distributors’ Associations (FIAD) gathers national organisations of film distribution companies, covering the entire range of companies: small and medium-sized companies specialized in art house films, as well as larger companies focused on mainstream films. FIAD’s members operate in 14 countries where they cover 90 to 100 percent of the theatrical market.
FIAD was founded to represent the interest of distributors and provide them with a voice at the European and global stage. The activities include helping to formulate policies, provide information on policies and distribution activities and coordinate political action when necessary. FIAD has established itself as a recognized stakeholder in policy debates and is also a member of the Advisory Committee of the European Audiovisual Observatory and holds observer status with the World Intellectual Property Organisation in Geneva, and the Council of Europe in Strasbourg.
