C EU Soon

C EU Soon is a curated work-in-progress program spotlighting European talents aimed at supporting their international distribution potential. The program features European films in the late stages of production or post-production, presented in a dedicated session for international distributors. Each presentation includes the screening of selected excerpts (up to 7 minutes), followed by a pitch from the producers and directors.
The projects compete for the Screen International Award, which offers special media coverage for the winning project.
