NETWORKING-EVENT BENELUX

Funded by the Staatskanzlei des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen   Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg share a common living and economic area with North Rhine-Westphalia in the heart of Europe. In recent years the Film Festival Cologne has already established close ties to partners in the Benelux countries. This year, too, our friendly connections to Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg will be celebrated with a special programme section for audience and industry people alike. This year‘s special focus will be on up and coming talents. Amongst others, Belgian director Zoé Wittock will tell us about working on her debut feature JUMBO, a Belgian-French-Luxembourgian co-production. Furthermore the film working grants of the Ministry of Culture and Science of North Rhine-Westphalia will be awarded. After the networking event the Dutch documentary film MY REMBRANDT by Oeke Hoogendijk will be shown.
