The goal of the event is very practical: to find partners for international co-production with Ukraine and to spread the word about Ukrainian projects, production capacity and creative potential on the international level.

The program includes presentations of projects, discussions, face-to-face meetings and consultations with Ukrainian and foreign producers.Invited foreign filmmakers have a lot of experience in co-production, and have already shown their interest in cooperation with Ukraine and Ukrainian projects at international forum KYIV MEDIA WEEK, a B2B ground for international filmmakers. Moreover, the invited producers have their own projects (feature films, series or documentaries), that may be realized in a partnership with Ukraine.

The event is supported by Ukrainian Cultural Foundation.
