    COTTBUS: connecting cottbus (coco) has opened the applications call for its 23rd hybrid edition set to take place 3-5 November 2021.

    Producers can submit feature film projects in development (fiction only) for the cocoPITCH section until 16 July 2021 and projects in production or postproduction for cocoWIP until 18 August 2021.

    Producers, sales agents, commissioning editors and other industry representatives can apply without a project until 15 October 2021.

    The longest-running networking event for film professionals active in EastWest coproduction will take place as usual in parallel with the FilmFestival Cottbus and continues to provide a platform for the region’s exciting filmmakers and their diverse voices.

    “We intend to have a hybrid market this autumn, comprising online components and on-site networking for those able and willing to travel. But one thing is certain: we will ensure coco 2021 feels inclusive for every participant and we look forward to celebrating Eastern European cinema with every one of you”, said coco director Marjorie Bendeck.
