The keynote speaker for the occasion was Meinolf Zurhorst, Head of The Film Department in ZDF/ARTE.
European producers had the opportunity to network with such international financiers as Charlotte Mickie (E1 Entertainment International), Jean-François Deveau (MK2), Robbie Little (The Little Film Company), Adam Betteridge (Premiere Picture) and Michael Ryan (Handmade Films).
Over the course of the following two days over 500 meetings were scheduled with international buyers and financiers during the Film Fair market. The Film Fair has been supported by the MEDIA Programme since 1996.
“For those of us who remember the Film Shop before the MEDIA Programme came on board, the transformation of the Film Fair into a truly international event where real business is done is impressive and a credit to the vision of the Galway Film Fleadh.” Eibhlin Ni Mhunghaile, MEDIA Antenna Galway.
