One place for the whole co‑production.

This is an illustration of how a plan looks, not real advice for a project. Amounts and eligibility always depend on each fund's current rules, which Kinobridge links to and checks regularly.

Our promise

Creators never pay to pitch.

Talent calls are paid for by the sponsor, never by the people who apply.

Every company is checked before it can use Kinobridge Pro.

Every call publishes its rules and its jury before it opens.

Your data stays in the EU, and you decide who sees your projects.

The 2027 pilot.

We start small and close to home, in four countries that co-produce with each other often. Producers, schools and commissions who join now shape what we build.

  1. Listening

    Conversations with producers, film schools and film commissions in Malta, Italy, Poland and Czechia.

  2. First look

    The first version of the finance-plan tool, shown to pilot partners.

  3. Pilot opens

    Partner schools, the first producers and the first sponsored talent call.

  4. More of Europe

    New countries added one by one, each with its funding rules checked locally.
