Cinema’s potential to communicate about Europe and its creativity has been recognised by a number EU Delegations (EUDs) in third countries that regularly organise film festivals. Such festivals are often one of the EUDs most effective tools in reaching out and making Europe and its values, stories and creativity known. Unfortunately, European Film Festivals often lack professionalism and are organised on tight budgets. To efficiently build on existing initiatives and ensure that European cinema contributes to the EU’s external cultural relations EUDs and their partners need the following: better access to good quality films, support for communication and marketing activities, more funding to increase festival quality standards, ambitious side events to engage civil society and higher involvement of the European audiovisual sector. The study analyses the current state of affairs in the EUDs and then proposes a set of centralised and decentralised support measures to streamline the organisation of film festivals in a cost-effective way to ensure that they become effective diplomatic, cultural and trade tools for the EU. Executive summary Towards the establishment of the programme ‘FILM FEST’ – Connecting and engaging through films In today’s globalised world, the European Union should be equally concerned about deploying its cultural and creative assets as it is about asserting its political and economic

  • Sydney Film Festival Is Back 10-21 June 27/05/2020
    MEDIA RELEASE: EMBARGOED 1AM, WEDNESDAY 27 MAY 2020 SYDNEY FILM FESTIVAL IS BACK 10-21 JUNE 2020 The 67th Sydney Film Festival: Virtual Edition and Awards program was officially launched today by Sydney Film Festival Director Nashen Moodley. “Since the 66th Sydney Film Festival in 2019, everything and nothing has changed. We aren’t together in a dark cinema sharing new ideas and worlds – but film is still where we look for them. So, Sydney Film Festival is back this year with a virtual program available to all homes across Australia. “This year’s special 67th Sydney Film Festival: Virtual Edition and Awards presents a distilled essence of Sydney Film Festival, where audiences can not only watch mind-boggling films but support the filmmakers who’ve made them,” said Nashen Moodley. "SFF has always been about community and dreaming together through film.” All films will screen with bonus material exclusively filmed for SFF, including filmmaker introductions and the screening, followed by question and answer sessions. Support for the Virtual Edition came from filmmakers past and present – from Bryan Brown to RJ Mitte to Nicole Kidman, all saying ‘Being part of Sydney Film Festival means a lot’. “The Festival presents Australian stories from a kaleidoscope of perspectives in three strands. From remote Western Australia - a snapshot of Australia's only entirely-Indigenous police station, to Antarctica, where we journey with women in STEM leadership; the Documentary Australia Foundation Award for Best Australian Documentary comprises 10 outstanding feature length Australian stories that are surprising, compelling, heart-warming and brilliant. “The Dendy Awards for Australian Short Films is a short film springboard that has kick-started the careers of many prominent filmmakers including Warwick Thornton, Ariel Kleiman, Cate Shortland, Jane Campion, Phillip Noyce and Ivan Sen.
