About Young Horizons Industry
The 8th international co-production forum for films and series for young audiences will take place in Warsaw and online, from 30 September to 2 October 2024.
Young Horizons Industry is a co-production forum and meeting hub for film professionals who are passionate about making films and series for young audiences.
In addition to project presentations and 1:1 meetings, the event programme includes panel discussions, workshops, training and networking programmes for emerging producers, film school students and fresh graduates, script and marketing consultations.
The Forum is part of the Young Horizons International Festival (28.09-6.10.2024), which has been held in Warsaw and Wrocław and other Polish cities for 11 years. Since 2020, festival films can also be viewed during the online edition.
Both events are organised by Young Horizons, a key branch of the New Horizons Association. It is responsible for distributing and supporting high-quality films and series for young audiences.
