Mumbai Film Mart,
the B2B platform that facilitates Indian films to reach international audiences
will be back for its third edition, to be held at the Taj President from
October 18th-20th, 2013. Aiming to be bigger and better than its prior
avatars, the Mumbai Film Mart will grow from its 1,200 meetings last year and
400 in its first edition. These meetings, between Indian producers and buyers
and distributors from several international markets have been fruitful for both
parties, with Japan, Taiwan, Brazil, Hong Kong, Poland, Germany, France, Sweden
and even South Korea bagging valuable deals.
Owing to its valuable contribution in
facilitating the sale of Indian films among these countries, MFM has also
garnered the support of top Indian production houses such as Yash Raj Films,
Disney UTV, Eros International, Reliance Entertainment, AKFPL and Balaji Motion
Pictures.
That said MFM is also an active platform for
independent filmmakers to showcase their work alongside big banner Bollywood
films.
Apart from the repeat participation from its
earlier breakthrough markets, MFM has confirmed attendance of new buyers and
broadcasters such as Astro (Malaysia), MBC (UAE), Shoreline Entertainment
(USA), Happiness Distribution and Aanna Films (France), international film
services providers such as 3D Alliance (France) and KFTV (UK) and key
International exhibitors such as the VOX chain of cinemas operating across the
Middle East.
MFM 2013 will continue to expand the scope of
the business of cinema with a focus on new technologies such as 3D, new
distribution models for independent films, Books2Screen to encourage film
adaptations, India Project Room for pre-selection of work-in-progress films and
Filmy Room an exclusive DVD viewing library.
This year, MFM will grow its scope manifold
by hosting pre-scheduled meetings, on-the-spot networking through speed dating,
informal meetings during happy hours, themed round table meetings and greater
visibility for select participants through SPOTS.
