EFP in partnership with the Ontario Media Development Corporation (OMDC) and the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF)
September 8-18, 2011

After a successful launch in 2010, the feature film networking and co-production program PRODUCERS LAB TORONTO (PLT) takes plasce again during the Toronto International Film Festival®, running from September 7-10, 2011.

Created by European Film Promotion (EFP) in collaboration with the Ontario Media Development Corporation (OMDC) and the Toronto International Film Festival® (TIFF), the platform encourages European and Canadian producers to partner on film projects with a high artistic, as well as commercial, value.
EFP arranges a programme for 12 European and 12 Canadian producers to meet and exchange projects, ideas and knowledge with the aim of increasing the number of concrete co-productions.

EFP brings European producers to Toronto, selected out of the Producers on the Move participants. The Canadian producers are selected by OMDC and TIFF. All participants must have a track record of successful project development and production, experienced in international co-production, and concrete interest in collaborations between Europe and Canada. The objective is to enhance the competitiveness of European films on the Canadian market and the competitiveness of Canadian films in Europe.
