THE GREAT (SOUTH TYROLEAN) BEAUTY

The production journey between South Tyrol and international festivals. The panel The Great (South Tyrolean) Beauty brings to the stage three case studies of films financed by IDM Film & Music Commission Südtirol. Three players on a virtuous path that led the films from South Tyrolean sets to the official selections of prestigious festivals in their categories. The talk will feature producers who'll share how their projects got in touch with the Film Commission, taking advantage of its funding opportunities and local expertise. Through the sharing of experiences in the region, the panel will highlight the role of IDM not only as a funding body, but also as a strategic partner capable of driving forward the projects it takes on, both in forging relationships between productions and crews and in supporting the international journey of funded projects. This is an opportunity to reflect on how festivals can change the future of a film and what the future prospects are for those who choose to produce in South Tyrol, where the increasing professionalization of the local audiovisual industry is ready to give birth to successful stories.
