Thanks to our Partners and Supporters

The project is thankful for the support of their long-time partner the Robert Bosch Foundation, as well as the Mitteldeutsche Medienförderung, the Serbian Ministry of Culture and the Goethe-Institute Belgrade.  And the network continues to grow – two new partners were added for 2011: with the FilmFestival Cottbus – Festival of Eastern European Films and the Film Association of Saxony, ANSICHTSASACHE has gained partners experienced in strategic networking of regional, as well as international, talent.
“ANSICHTSSACHE has proven itself as a successful project for the cooperation between up-and-coming filmmakers from Germany and Eastern Europe.  This partnership marks the strategic enhancement of the profile and program of the FilmFestival Cottbus as well as our East-West co production market Connecting Cottbus.“ (Roland Rust, FilmFestival Cottbus director)
“ANSICHTSSACHE is actively working with the up-and-coming artists on the film landscape in Saxony.  The Film Association, as a representative of the interests of filmmakers, wishes to support the important promotion of talent that is taking place here.  We are looking forward to the intensive cooperation with the filmmakers and authors from both Serbia and Leipzig.” (Uwe Penckert, Film Association of Saxony)
