IFFR Pro
IFFR champions boundary-pushing independent cinema – both through its festival programming and its industry activities which offer year-round support to film professionals. These includes the co-production market CineMart, talent development initiatives including Rotterdam Lab for emerging international producers, and financial support for filmmakers through the Hubert Bals Fund.
