Locarno Pro’s digitally based service aims at extending the outreach and distribution of heritage films through video on demand, extending the range of titles offered by such services.
Heritage Online offers film professionals a year-round database where streamers and other buyers are able to watch available titles from all over the world in a dedicated Online Screening Room, consult their detailed technical information including availability of films in the various territories, and get in touch directly with their rights holders.
Thanks to Heritage Online, rights holders such as international sales agents, film libraries, archives, institutes, and restorers’ associations among others are able to share their catalogues with potential clients, such as VOD broadcasters from all over the world, ranging from generalist to niche offerings, from established names to emerging start-ups.
All Heritage Online subscriptions give 12 months of access to the database. The Heritage Online database is accessible at the following link: https://heritage.locarnofestival.ch/login
Rights holders can offer a selection from their catalogue on the platform alongside a file of their complete catalogue. Eligibility criteria for titles: feature length films of any genre that premiered no later than 2010. Each film added in the screening room will cost CHF 70.
Films featured in a past edition of the Locarno Film Festival can be featured in the Screening Room for free (contact us).
Heritage Online’s basic subscription is included in the Locarno Pro accreditation.
