Close Enconters

One-on-one meetings between Israeli filmmakers and leading international decision-makers –including commissioning editors, producers, and investors – in order to open up new funding channels and co-production opportunities. 

The Close Encounters track is designed for projects at various stages of development – both those that aren’t ready for public pitching, and those that have been pitched before and aren’t completed yet. 

Rough Cut

Six high-profile documentaries at the rough-cut stage will be exclusively featured on the CoPro.Screen platform for screening to commissioning editors, distributors, buyers, and other market professionals seeking to acquire films.  

Each team will have the chance to present their project in a showcase event, in order to generate creative, constructive discussion with the market guests, and to help the filmmakers break into international markets and promote sales.
