MEDIA Mundus backing confirmed for joint programme by EFP, OMDC and TIFF
Successful PRODUCERS LAB TORONTO to be continued at 2012 Toronto International Film Festival
Crossing the Atlantic with their luggage full of cinematic ideas, 12 hand-picked
and dynamic European producers will meet their 12 talented Canadian counterparts
at the Toronto International Film Festival, from September 5 - 8 to find
joint film projects. The first two editions of PRODUCERS LAB TORONTO were so
successful that almost all of the participants from 2010 and 2011 are in contact
with one another and 27 projects are actively in development. Consequently, the
MEDIA Mundus programme of the European Union has now confirmed financial
backing of the platform for the third year running.
The forum is organized by European Film Promotion (EFP) in collaboration
with the Ontario Media Development Corporation (OMDC) and TIFF and
effectively pools the European and Canadian creative, technical and financial
resources of the three organizations.
