Leading training programme for European-Asian co-production. The participants will work with top-notch industry professionals from both continents. The sessions will focus on script development, co-production between Asia and Europe, public and private financing in the two regions, marketing and distribution, and the legal aspects of co-production. 

TTB is targeted at European & Asian producers with projects. The programme selects 5 European and 5 Asian producers. In addition to feature fiction films, TTB is also open as well to TV series or animation fiction films in development. Starting from 2015 the call is open in addition also to other European professionals interested in working with Asia (sales agents, financiers, distributors, festival programmers, co-production market representatives) or producers without project. 5 of them will be selected to be an active part of the group.
