In partnership with FICCI-FRAMES, we are hosting a seminar to discuss coproduction

seminar will also promote the UK’s strength within international film sales.
Subjects to be discussed include:
‐ How can working with the UK can help to increase the international value of a
film?
‐ What financing opportunities are now available in the UK?
‐ Who are the partners in the UK for your project?
‐ Creative partnerships between UK and India – what are the stories we can tell
each other?
The panel will be chaired by Jonathan Olsberg [Olsberg SPI] and will include
filmmaker Shekhar Kapur, Tim Haslam [HanWay], David Thompson [Origin
Pictures], Dina Dattani [consultant], Mr VB Pyarelal [Ministry of Information and
Broadcasting], and Isabel Davis [UK Film Council]
Jonathan Olsberg will use this opportunity to introduce the delegation to the Indian
audience.
