Our SAN SEBASTIAN workshop will explore "An European Puzzle : Current state of play of Day and Date releases". Opinions and experiences, pros and cons,... all positions will be heard and discussed in order to understand where, when and how can Day and Date help a film fulfil its potential.

In ROME, we will have our general assembly and elect our new board. It will also be the occasion to discuss on what was achieved in 2014, and what are the projects and priorities to come for the association. Besides, we will have an open panel on innovative releases, marketing strategies and tools.
