are delighted by
the eclectic
selection and
the considerable
increase in
submissions this
year. These are
encouraging
signs of the HAF’s growing
popularity and
its importance
to filmmakers in
the region. It
is no easy task
to secure funds
for a film
project, and I
hope HAF will
continue to help
realise a
diversity of
projects by
bringing
together
professionals
from the
international
film community
involved in the
development,
production and
marketing of
films. We also
highly value our
partnership with
other project
markets
including
Copenhagen's
DOX:LAB, New
York’s
Independent
Filmmaker
Project, and
Paris Projects
from France,
which has
effectively
expanded our
international
networks and in
turn enriched
the range of
filmmakers we
aim to support."
