The Festival de Málaga, in collaboration with Abycine Lanza, as part of the joint project 'El Impulso', is today launching the call for entries for Malaga Work in Progress. This event is part of its MAFIZ (Malaga Festival Industry Zone) and is aimed at Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American projects. The aim is to consolidate the festival's commitment to the diversity of identities and languages within the Ibero-American sphere and its audiovisual industry.
Málaga WIP is organised by Malaga City Council and Festival de Málaga in collaboration with the ICAA (Spanish Institute of Cinematography and Visual Arts), CAACI (Conference of Ibero-American Audiovisual and Cinematographic Authorities), IBERMEDIA, FIPCA (Ibero-American Federation of Film and Audiovisual Producers) and Abycine Lanza.
It will take place from 3 to 5 March 2027 as part of the 30th Festival de Málaga. Project registration can be done online until 2 December 2026 on the MAFIZ website. The selected projects will be announced in early 2027.
Malaga WIP, which celebrates its tenth edition in 2027, aims to boost film financing by presenting projects to prominent industry professionals, foster their promotion and distribution, support the completion of films currently in post-production and facilitate their international distribution.
It comprises two different initiatives:
· Málaga WIP España - El Impulso, featuring six Spanish titles.
· Málaga WIP Iberoamerica, featuring six Ibero-American titles (Latin America and Portugal).
