Crossing Borders
Concept We believe that across the borders we have things in common, by screening and distributing European films, which British people can connect to, we make people aware of the similarities.
Company Goals We want to: Distribute European films in the UK Expand the availability of European film on the British Market. Make people more aware of different cultures Make people less afraid of foreign films and watching films in a different language Show that European films are not that foreign and that we all have many things in common

What makes us different? Our focus is Europe We want to distribute films that have been popular among the general population in their home countries. Films for the average UK population. Also focus on kids. We want people to see that foreign film art not all weird. We are from different countries in Europe
