BUSTER/CPH PIX - Copenhagen Film Festivals
Date du début: 27 févr. 2016, Date de fin: 27 févr. 2017 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

In 2016 Denmark’s two biggest film festivals in their respective fields combine forces and dates while retaining their distinct, successful brands and target audiences. The ambition is to create one distinctive audience festival for all ages with a focus on quality, diversity and dialogue - and a strong European presence. In 2015 BUSTER had 37.700 admissions in September and CPH PIX had 55.000 admissions in April, and with such a strong fanbase the combined festival is expected to reach at least 85.000 admissions in October as there has been no former overlap in target audiences. Thus the full 14 day programme will have children and youth films for schools and families during the daytime and arthouse and genre films in the afternoons and evenings. The BUSTER sections of the festival will continue to champion quality films for ages 3-16, with a focus on films which push boundaries, maintain a high quality and give insight to other cultures, being entertaining as well as ideal for educational topics. School classes and teachers are also the target audience for the diverse lineup of workshops and other educational events made with a focus on themes from the films as well as practical filmmaking and new media education. The general audience programme (age 17+) retains the CPH PIX focus on new talents and attention grabbing audience events. This part of the festival contains two talent orientated competition programs, both with a major European accent, a strong row of thematic, artistic and genre based sidebars as well as unique profile defining and audience developing events, including a special Live section, Artist Talks and On Location screenings. With intertwining ideas, films, events and outreach mechanisms, the new combined festival foresees a strong synergy, that will enhance audience development, establish new audience activities and enrich the European film representation in Denmark - both at the festival and in around-the-year activities.
