Introduced for first time in 2013, the “Remake it!” project was greeted with interest
and satisfaction by the participating professionals. Within the framework of The
Business Street it seemed natural to draw attention to a growing market: the sale
of remake rights of stories with a strong appeal, which enjoyed great success in
their native countries, but which carry the potential to communicate with
audiences around the world. In 2014, the format for this event will be reinforced in
order to offer greater opportunities for the promotion of these titles and to foster
even more effective networking between professionals. In collaboration with
WCPMedia Services, Filmsharks Int’l and Casa del Cinema Zètema|Progetto
Cultura, a short presentation will be organized at Casa del Cinema, during which
esteemed speakers will be asked to share their knowledge on the negotiation of
remake rights from both a legal and a commercial point of view. The titles selected
for the 2014 edition of “Remake it!” will be included in a special section of the
video-library and in the app for accredited visitors to the market.
October 18th, Casa del Cinema, Sala Kodak, 10 am
