Two Romanian projects at Connecting Cottbus

    The 14th edition of the East-West co-production market Connecting Cottbus will take place on November 8 and 9, 2012.

    13 New feature film projects are looking for international co-production partners.
    Romania is represented by two projects: Hotel Eden by Anca Damian (Crulic – The Path to Beyond) deals with the sense of guilt of a journalist following a stay in Afghanistan and One Floor Below, the new project by Radu Muntean (Boogie, Tuesday after Christmas), a psychological dilemma of a witness to a crime.

    The "Best Pitch Award" will go to the best public presentation of a project during the pitching session. The award of €1500 goes to the producer of the awarded project. The "Post Pitch Award", which is donated by the Berlin-based post production company "The Post Republic", includes color correction services and the production of a DCP for a suitable project. The winner is chosen by a jury of three film industry professionals out of the projects presented at Connecting Cottbus.
