The East European Forum is the region's largest meeting of East European documentary filmmakers with leading European commissioning editors, distributors, buyers and film fund representatives. Directors and independent producers offer their projects for co-production, presale or any other form of financial support. The foundation of the Forum created an alternative in Central Europe to the previous practice which relied on funding provided by the state or by local broadcasters. During its existence, the Forum has become a prestigious meeting place that has, since 2001, hosted 420 East European filmmakers and producers, 59 TV representatives and dozens of international distributors, buyers and festival programmers. Support for East European documentary films in the initial development stage, an overview of funding options for documentary projects, an outline of different paths available for films both prior and after completion.
