🥳 Our animated documentary Red Zone by Iryna Tsilyk will be pitched at the EFM Animation Days during the European Film Market - EFM. The project is taking part in the Spotlight On: Central Eastern European Animation Pitch on 12 February.

Iryna Tsilyk, a celebrated Ukrainian filmmaker and poet, makes her animated debut with Red Zone. Narrated by the filmmaker, the film reflects on the fate of her generation, whose youth was marked by revolutions and war.

Previously the project was pitched at CPH:FORUM and at Mifa Pitches in Annecy where it won the Eurimages and Ciclic development awards.

💫 The EFM Animation Days is a new industry platform within the European Film Market, strengthening the visibility of a sector in which Europe excels. The programme brings together producers, financiers, sales companies, broadcasters, and distributors to explore international animation projects with strong market potential.

We’re looking forward to pitching Red Zone at the EFM Animation Days with our great co-producers Marion Guth (a_BAHN, Luxembourg) and Jean-François Le Corre (Vivement Lundi !, France). ❤

Let’s meet in Berlin!
