Together with 23 other important European festivals and organizations, the Locarno Film Festival announces a new partnership: FAME (Film and Audiovisual Markets in Europe).
This marks a pivotal moment in the industry, forging a Europe-wide groundbreaking alliance that can support filmmakers, professionals, and producers in their efforts to make original and independent works. In a challenging time for our industry, the foundation upon which the entire film, television, and immersive ecosystem is built needs to be strengthened through cooperation between its major institutions.
Filmmakers and producers will benefit from the alliance from the initial development stages of their projects to forging essential contacts, securing financing, and reaching global audiences.
By strengthening partnerships and expanding access to resources, FAME signatories will pool resources and unify efforts in addressing multifaceted challenges facing the industry, but also to ensure that Europe remains a vibrant space where independent film can thrive.
