Alessia Acone Talks ‘Eclectic’ CineMart Selection, Engaging Emerging Professionals and ‘Staying Real’: ‘The Trend Is Diversity’
Head of IFFR Pro Alessia Acone talks ‘eclectic’ CineMart selection, engaging emerging professionals ahead of its 41st edition.
“A new set of awards, courtesy of Eurimages, proves that this year’s selection is made out of projects that dare to push boundaries, talk about personal and relevant matters, and experiment – also with different formats.” Welcoming returning “Tiger talents,” such as Gibson, Shangze Zhu – behind “A Distant House Smokes on the Horizon” – or Si En Tan, producer of Daniel Hui’s “Other People’s Dreams,” CineMart is also focusing on engaging “more and more” emerging professionals.
