VDFP RELOADED!

The independent German Producers’ Association (VDFP) has elected a completely new and younger managing board, including key producers behind films such as TONI ERDMANN, GOODBYE BERLIN, EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE and PINA. VDFP represents some 70 German independent film and TV companies in all relevant and important film funding committees and film policy commissions. The association is actively supporting a more progressive and future-oriented film policy that should take risks in times where the whole industry is rapidly changing. Its agenda stands for improvement of the German film funding system and the terms of trade for independent producers, harmonization of international co-production terms and, thus, embracing the challenges of the future for film and TV production in the global market. At the same time, the VDFP provides a platform for a continuous exchange of information among its members and establishes a think pool for new strategies in distribution and business models.
