Instituto de la Cinematografía y de las Artes Audiovisuales / ICAA (Spain)

"There are very few cooperation networks as strong as EFP in terms of structure, quality and professionality of the team, and variety of member film centers and institutes working together in order to promote European film and talent. For the ICAA it is an honor to be part of this great group of people sharing a vision and the common goal of boosting the visibility of our cinema abroad, and amongst Europe. Let's remain consistent, inclusive and creative in our mission!"
