MAFIZ, the Festival de Málaga industry area, celebrates Málaga Work in Progress every year, reaffirming its commitment to the diversity of identities and languages of Ibero-America and its audiovisual industry. This initiative aims to continue supporting the development of projects by creators from Spain, Portugal and Latin America.
The objectives of Málaga Work in Progress are to:
? Promote the financing of films by presenting them to leading professionals in the sector.
? Encourage their dissemination and promotion.
? Support the completion of films in post-production.
? Facilitate their international distribution.
The programme consists of two sections designed according to the needs of participating films and their creators. Both focus on promoting the completion of fiction and documentary feature films that are at the advanced or first cut stage, seeking support for their post-production and international distribution:
? Málaga WIP España, which welcomes Spanish projects.
? Málaga WIP Iberoamérica, which includes titles from Latin America and Portugal.
Selected films will be screened for accredited professionals at MAFIZ and the Festival de Málaga, including sales agents, international distributors, festival programmers, international funds and producers.
