Greetings from Amsterdam! Last week we had the opportunity to visit IDFA International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam as a member of the Finnish delegation of documentary film producers. This was truly a great opportunity for us since we're working on a documentary with potential for international distribution. After countless hours of sitting just the two of us in our office writing, producing, planning, editing, grading and animating, it was nice to get out in the world with our project that tells an eternal Finnish story. A story that's more relevant to Europe now than in decades.
Behind the meetings, parties and a wonderful lunch hosted by Suomen elokuvasäätiö - Finnish Film Foundation, among others, loomed opportunity. The carefully prepared work and support during the preparations of the pitch led to possibilities we're looking after. Our documentary now has a higher potential of getting distributed in Europe, not only Finland.
Big thanks to Audiovisual Producers Finland - APFI, Yle, AVEK - Audiovisuaalisen kulttuurin edistämiskeskus and SES for this opportunity!
