What is Crossing Borders?

Together with the European Documentary Network and Documentary Campus, Crossing Borders 2017 is in partnership with FINAS - The National Film Development Corporation Malaysia and MyDocs - The Malaysian Documentary Association.

Crossing Borders is a training programme for documentary professionals in Asia and Europe looking to access the international market. It has previously been held in China (2010), Malaysia (2011 & 2013), Indonesia (2015) and South Korea (2012 & 2016). Each year Crossing Borders invites filmmakers from Europe and Asia to submit their project ideas and approx 15 projects are chosen. Selected participants then attend three workshops (over a span of 6 months) covering training in: how to develop your story, accessing the international market, pitching your project, editing a polished trailer, distributing your finished film, how to navigate the international co-production process and more.
