WEBWIRE

Proyecta, an initiative organized by Ventana Sur and the San Sebastian Film Festival, will host the presentation of 16 film projects in the search for co-production between Latin America and Europe. At the meeting, to take place on December 4 at the Ventana Sur audiovisual market in Buenos Aires, the leading Latin American market, jointly organised for the last eleven years by the INCAA and the Marché du Film-Festival de Cannes, works at the development stage will be presented to producers, programmers and sales agents, with the aim of finding partners to complete their financing and international distribution.

For the second consecutive year, the selected projects will be presented by their producers at a pitching session to professionals from the international film industry, followed by a meeting to promote agreements with interested attendees.

The selection will be made up of twelve Latin American projects from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay selected by Paulo Roberto de Carvalho, Esperanza Luffiego and Clara Massot; two of the works are Brazilian and come from the EAVE Puentes-Europe/Latin America Co-production Workshop and Brazil CineMundi. Completing the selection are four European projects from the San Sebastian Film Festival’s VIII Europe-Latin America Coproduction Forum.

Among the 16 works presented are nine first or second films, alongside outstanding works by directors of long-standing reputation who have participated in recent years in sections such as New Directors or Horizontes Latinos at the San Sebastian Film Festival. This is the case of Lucía Puenzo, director and producer of Los impactados, and Julio Hernández Cordón, with El día es largo y oscuro (Mis amigos son vampiros) / The Day is Long and Dark (My Friends are Vampires).

The four projects coming from the VIII Europe-Latin America Co-Production Forum are Juan Sebastián Torales’ Almamula, winner of the Eurimages Prize for Co-production Development in San Sebastian; Daniel Gil Suárez’s Ana no duerme / Sleepless Ana; Karmele. La hora de despertarnos juntos, by Asier Altuna, who competed in the Official Selection at the San Sebastian Festival with Amama (2015), and Los jueces / The Judges, by César Díaz, whose first film, Nuestras madres / Our Mothers (2019), won the Caméra d’Or at the Cannes Critics’ Week and was selected for the Horizontes Latinos section at the San Sebastian Film Festival.
