Filmtett Association's film distribution programme 2024

ongoing

Cluj-based Filmtett Association was founded in 2005 with a mission to support the Hungarian-speaking film critics website, filmtett.ro and to organize film-related events like film festivals and workshops. We started film distribution in 2016, offering a selection of high quality European (mostly Hungarian) films for the Romanian public. Our films address diverse audiences, including people of all ages and socio-economic classes. We would like to provide diversified content: our portfolio extends from children's films to social dramas and genre films. In 2023, we premiered 8 Central European films, attracting almost 20.000 spectators. Several of our films have received significant critical acclaim. The movie Explanation for Everything from our portfolio won the Best Film award in the Horizons section of the 80th Venice International Film Festival. Another film from our portfolio, Katalin Moldovai's debut feature was also awarded at numerous film festivals, for example at the Warsaw Film Festival in the Competition 1-2 section and received the Young FIPRESCI Award as well. In the next few years, with the release of notable arthouse movies, we expect to keep and grow our audience by releasing at least seven-eight European feature films each year. In order to increase our performance, we plan to introduce new digital and social media marketing tools.
