The long documentary Factories to the Workers by Srđan Kovačević, produced by Fade in, is presented in the From the Earth to the Moon competition programme, while the Green Years section, which is dedicated to student films, is presenting a total of 17 Croatian films produced by the Academy for Dramatic Arts of the Zagreb University.

In the industry programme Nebulae, a pitching session is organised for nine projects in development, and four recently filmed projects are available to film festivals' programmers, distributors, sales agents, exhibitors and press.

The industry programme was supported by the Croatian Audiovisual Centre (HAVC).

“This is the first ever inter-institutional cooperation of this sort between Portugal and Croatia, and I am confident that it is the beginning of a lasting relationship. In the audiovisual sector we share similar challenges as so-called low production capacity countries. It should come as no surprise then that Portugal and Croatia find themselves to be natural allies in the European policy debates which shape our future”, head of HAVC Chris Marcich told FNE.

Marcich added that both countries remain very desirable filming destinations not only because of their beautiful landscapes, but also because of the high quality of their film professionals.
