Tallinn TV Beats Unveils Co-Financing Market Lineup-AMC’s ‘Fata Morgana’ Makes the Cut (EXCLUSIVE)
Ten series in development including Hungary’s “Fata Morgana” and Ireland’s “The Reluctant Contact” will be pitched in Tallinn.
For professionals from the Baltic states Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania in particular, who have enjoyed a surge in filming and production servicing activity in recent years but are still lagging behind in financing of local content, TV Beats’s co-financing market offers unique opportunities.
