The European Film Academy’s Board held its three-day meeting in Albania, bringing leading European producers and filmmakers to Vlora.

During their stay, board members met Albanian film professionals and explored the country’s history, culture and filming potential.

The visit aimed to create new partnerships and promote Albania as a destination for international film productions.

Meanwhile, the Municipality of Vlora welcomed the European filmmakers. The initiative also seeks to bring more Albanian stories to European cinema and help local filmmakers join international projects and co-productions.

Founded in 1989, the European Film Academy is a non-profit organisation that supports and promotes European cinema. It brings together around 5,700 film professionals from 60 countries.

The Academy also organises the annual European Film Awards, which recognise outstanding achievements in European cinema.
