Our immersive media projects have become a vital part of the market, as have our work-in-progress screenings which return following a glowing reception to their introduction last year. With several Hubert Bals Fund projects on show across the selection, it&#8217;s clear that we are offering comprehensive support to filmmakers at every stage of their journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>The CineMart team is Alessia Acone, Jolinde den Haas, Lara Gonz\u00e1lez Lobo, Federico Anselmi, Laura Pinto and Francesca Emiliano.

For the first time, we also launched an open call for participation in the programme, and five spots have been made available to selected producers to maximise the plurality of voices, backgrounds and experiences within the programme. BoostNL will have its second chapter of sessions and mentorships in Rotterdam and will bring talented Dutch teams together with international projects supported by the Hubert Bals Fund. Creative Producer Indaba, presented by the Realness Institute, in collaboration with EAVE, will return to Rotterdam after its chapter hosted and organised by the Marrakech International Film Festival&#8217;s Atlas Workshops.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This edition marks the introduction of a new collaboration that deepens our commitment to giving emerging talent access to festivals and markets. Launchpad was created thanks to the joint efforts of Locarno Film Festival, Thessaloniki International Film Festival, Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival and Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. The initiative aims to support and facilitate access for emerging professionals to a network of film festivals, and targets those young professionals working in sales, marketing, distribution, exhibition, programming, funding and\/or commissioning.
