Midas Filmes European Film Distribution 2025

2026-07-22

Midas Filmes was created in 2006 and is one of the most important independent Portuguese distribution companies. Over the last decade, we’ve released several films awarded with the Palm d’Or, the Best Foreign Movie Oscar or with other awards in the most important film festivals. Our catalogue includes films by indispensable directors, covering all areas of the most creative contemporary filmmaking. We mainly distribute European films by awarded directors. Also, Iranian, Chinese or American independent films. Documentaries also play an important part in our distribution work. Midas is planning to reinvest the generated fund in the acquisition of distribution rights of 8 eligible non-national European films and in the theatrical release costs of 4 non-national European films. We foresee to acquire films by awarded directors or first and second features by young European directors that are awarded and/or premiered in festivals such as Cannes, Venice or Berlin or at the Unifrance Rendez-Vous in Paris. Regarding our releases, all our theatrical campaigns will be national (posters, postcards, social media ads, radio). We'll do several press screenings for journalists. and the directors will give interviews to the most important newspapers. We'll have several partnerships that will help us promote the films and several actions will be developed in order to attract new youth audience. Also, after theatrical release, we will release all the films in VOD.
