MÁLAGA WORK IN PROGRESS (WIP) / About Us

The Festival de Málaga celebrates the eighth edition of Malaga Work in Progress, highlighting its commitment to the diversity of identities and languages in the Ibero-American sphere and its audiovisual industry. With the aim of continuing to work on strengthening the projects of creators from Spain, Portugal and Latin America.

The next edition of Malaga Work in Progress will take place on the 18th, 19th, 20th, and 21st of March 2025 within the framework of the 28th edition of the Festival de Málaga.

Project registration is open until the 15th of January 2025.

Málaga Work in Progress is organised by the Malaga City Council and the Festival de Málaga in collaboration with the ICAA (Institute of Cinematography and Visual Arts of Spain), CAACI (Conference of Audiovisual and Cinematographic Authorities of Ibero-America), IBERMEDIA and FIPCA (Ibero-American Federation of Film and Audiovisual Producers).


Málaga Work in Progress aims to contribute towards:

- Promoting the financing of films by presenting them to leading industry professionals.

- Encouraging their dissemination and promotion.

- Supporting the completion of films in the post-production phase.

- Making their international distribution viable.

Málaga Work in Progress is made up of two different actions, tailored to the needs of the participating films and their creators. Both are designed to promote the completion of fiction-based feature films and documentary films in the advanced or first cut phase, in search of incentives for the post-production process and their international distribution.

Málaga WIP Spain, in which six titles from Spanish will participate.

Málaga WIP Ibero-America,
in which six Ibero-American titles (Latin America and Portugal) will participate.

Audiovisual works must be registered as such with the Institute of Cinematography or similar organizations in their country of origin, whether these maybe professional organisations or others recognised as such.


The selected films will be screened for professionals participating in Mafiz and the Festival de Málaga, sales agents, international distributors, festival programmers, international funds and producers.
