Talk 1: SALES – WHICH FILMS STILL TRAVEL
The first talk on Tuesday, 18 May at 3pm CET will look at the current situation of sales companies after the short shock caused by the pandemic. How have rights holders had to look at different ways of doing business and what does this actually mean for arthouse films? Will the tried and tested partnerships between producers and sales continue as before? Tine Klint (LevelK), Hédi Zardi (Luxbox), Susan Wendt (TrustNordisk) and Nicolas Brigaud-Robert (Playtime) will be providing the answers at this session which aims to give producers indications of how the current changes could shape the future and lead distributors to develop new tastes and what this will mean for their future projects. The panel will be moderated by the Romanian producer Ada Salomon (Golden Bear winner Bad Luck Banging Or Loony Porn).

Talk 2: FUNDS – MEETING NEW FUNDING CRITERIA
The second talk with Helge Albers (Film Fund Hamburg Schleswig-Holstein) and Tim Wagendorp (VAF – Flanders Audiovisual Fund), taking place on Wednesday, 19 May at 3pm CET, will focus on diversity and sustainability as new criteria for cinema and how to deal with 'checklists' as a mandatory funding requirement. The conversation will address the hurdles and misguided debate on the way to greater diversity. The panel will be moderated by Andrea Schütte from Hamburg-based Tamtam Film (In Your Arms, 2015; Love and War, 2018).
