Spain’s Conecta Fiction & Entertainment Forum Fetes Brazil and Portugal Amidst a Myriad of Activities


Conecta Fiction & Entertainment, running June 18-21 in Toledo, is turning its focus on Brazil and Portugal.

Now on its 8th edition, the international TV forum Conecta Fiction& Entertainment (CF&E), held in the ancient Spanish city of Toledo from June 18 to 21, is turning its focus to Brazil and Portugal. Meanwhile, Portugal has become a thriving hub for Portuguese-language premium dramas and launched a new 30% cash refund incentive program in April to lure higher-budget film and TV productions to shoot in the country. Spanish public broadcaster RTVE, a repeat sponsor of the coveted development contract for the winner of the pitch sessions, will preside over two panels that will review the scripted and non-scripted titles set to play on its linear and digital platforms: historical crime series “Internal Affairs,” produced by Mediacrest; international thriller “Scar” by Plano a Plano; docuseries “Megamix Brutal” by Producciones del Barrio and the multi-award winning co-production “This is Not Sweden.”
