European Film Forum at the 76th Venice Film Festival

The Mostra is one of the world’s biggest film festivals, and is among those with the broadest international appeal. This makes it a great place to look into the international dimension of Europe’s audiovisual sector.

This is why this year's European Film Forum in Venice, under the title 'European stories go global: promoting European audiovisual works beyond Europe' will address how the presence of European audiovisual works in key markets beyond Europe can be strengthened and how to reach larger audiences for European productions in non-EU countries.

The event will be held on 31 August, in the afternoon.
