By FNE Staff

COTTBUS: Ten projects selected from a record number of submissions will vie for the top spot at the East-West co-production market at the FilmFestival Cottbus on 10-11 November 2016. The selection was made from among over 120 submissions from 35 countries.

The 18th connecting cottbus (coco), the East-West co-production market at the FilmFestival Cottbus, will once again give a chance to producers and directors to pitch their projects to approximately 150 film professionals.

coco also welcomes the pitchers in its cocoLab programme, a mentoring platform before and aſter the pitches, including a customary selection of high-powered workshops on topics such as audience design, digital single market territories, VOD platforms or the use of new social media.

Also continuing this year is #FEEDback (Film Eastern Europe Dialogue), a joint international initiative by coco, Transilvania International Film Festival and When East Meets West Co-production Forum.

connecting cottbus is supported by Medienboard Berlin-Brandenburg, Creative Europe/MEDIA and MDM Mitteldeutsche Medienförderung.
