THROUGH THE PIPELINE - A CASE STUDY OF KIX

11:15 - 12:15 Sunday 17th Mar 2024 / 60 min

This session showcases how a film travels through the pipeline of festivals. In conversation with the filmmakers of KIX (2024), we will follow the film’s path leading up to its world premiere at CPH:DOX, featured in the NEXT:WAVE competition. The filmmakers will take us through the making of this film – from early development, to securing financing by pitching the project and having one-to-one meetings with financiers all the way to the world premiere
