FOCUS ON DOCUMENTARY: CASE STUDY OF LIVING THE LIGHT 29 Supper Club 10.00 - 11.30 Claire Pijman will discuss her latest work, documentary Living the Light, which portrays the late cinematographer Robby Müller, using pictures and clips from his personal archive and interviews with some of his former colleagues, such as Wim Wenders, and Jim Jarmusch. Claire Pijman will talk about Müller’s influence on her works, with a focus on cinematography, but also how the general process of the documentary took place. She will be accompanied by Robby’s wife, Andrea Müller, who has supported her greatly during the making of the film. VOD - THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT? Hosted by Creative Europe Desk UK 29 Supper Club 12.00 - 13.30 With Netflix continuing to dominate headlines for its aggressive acquisition and distribution strategies, questions still remain around the opportunity for emerging talent on the platform; is there space here for the discovery of new filmmaking talent? And if not, then where? Whilst large platforms continue to focus on global reach, are new opportunities opening up for more localised and tailored digital offerings? Big streamers are increasingly commissioning local content, with new EU laws pushing VODs to devote at least 30% of their on-demand libraries to European productions. Do smaller, local platforms enable better reach for certain films? And can these platforms prove successful in launching and sustaining filmmaking careers? These are some of the questions that Alex Stolz will be putting to our panel of experts, including producer Rachel Robey from Wellington Films, Andreas Wildfang from EYZ Media, and Lee Shelton from Curzon. INDUSTRY SPOTLIGHT: JOE PENNA Sponsored by NFTS Scotland 29 Supper Club 14.00 - 15.00 Join innovative filmmaker and content creator Joe Penna as he discusses his career, from his snowballing successful start on YouTube, to debuting his first feature film Arctic at Cannes in 2018.

Speakers include Paul Welsh (producer and development executive of the Scottish Film Talent Network), Flore Cosquer (Scottish Documentary Institute) and Sam Firth (filmmaker and MA Filmmaking lecturer at the University of the West of Scotland). FILM DISRUPTORS - THE FUTURE OF DISTRIBUTION Live Podcast recording 29 Supper Club 16.00-17.30 With audiences increasingly overwhelmed by a vast proliferation of content, the challenge to capture attention and engagement for films other than the biggest blockbusters is ever growing. Yet, with these changes also comes the opportunity to target consumers with higher accuracy and to reach them directly, potentially at much lower cost. What do these trends mean for independent film? And how should storytellers approach distribution in 2019? Find answers here with the new distributors and entrepreneurs, pioneering the tools, strategies and techniques to cut through the noise and find independent film its audience. Guests include Ben Johnson of Gruvi, Mia Bays from Bird’s Eye View and Eve Gabereau from Modern Films. Please note that this event will be recorded live and as such no latecomers will be admitted.
