This panel brings together three essential perspectives in the life cycle of a film: curation, production, and international sales. From the earliest stages of development to festival premieres and global distribution, each of these roles plays a crucial part in shaping how films are made, positioned, and ultimately reach audiences.
Featuring Frederic Boyer, Maria Ekerhovd and Isabel Ivars, the conversation will explore how projects are selected, supported and guided through the complex ecosystem of contemporary cinema. What makes a film stand out today? How do filmmakers navigate the path from idea to international circulation? And what are thekey challenges and opportunities for emerging voices entering the global film landscape?
By bringing together these three complementary viewpoints, the panel offers a comprehensive insight into the journey of a film today, highlighting the collaborative processes, strategic decisions and creative instincts that allow stories to travel across borders and connect with audiences worldwide.
