Z365" or "Festival all year round" is the new strategic point of the Festival in which converge investigation, accompaniment and development of new talents (Ikusmira Berriak, Nest); training and cinematic knowledge transfer (Elías Querejeta Zine Eskola, Zinemaldia + Plus, Filmmakers' dialogue); and investigation, disclosure and cinematic thought (Z70 project, Thought and Discussion and Research and publications).
The Film Factory Award consists of the pre-purchase of the international distribution rights, for the whole world, for one of the films selected for Films in Progress 32, for a guaranteed minimum of €40,000 going to the main producer of the film. If the rights are for the whole world except Spain, the amount forwarded will be €30,000.
The other terms of the agreement will be negotiated by the parties at a later date.
Should the producer of the selected film decide not to accept the award, Film Factory will be under no obligation to offer its prize to a second film and the Award will not be awarded.
