3rd Produire Au Sud

The minds of these people mix like milk and water and finally organize into a harmonious Brotherhood.

As part of the World Film Festival of Bangkok, Produire au Sud is a biennial workshop in which indie producers and directors get a chance to talk with industry figures about their films and how to get funding for them. This year's Produire au Sud Bangkok workshop will be held from October 29 to November 1. Six projects have been chosen:

* Stratosphere (Thailand) - producer Hassaya Rimphanawat; director Patavee Viranuvat
* I Carried You Home (Thailand) - producer Thacksakorn Pradubpongsa, director Tongpong Chantarangkul
* The Tour (Malaysia) - producer Joanna Lee; director Chris Chong
* Shadows of Noon (Philippines) - producer Vanessa Ulgado; director Ivy Universe Baldosa
* Balaan (Philippines) - producer Oscar Nava, director Ray Gibraltar
* Remembrance (Philippines) - producer Eloisa Espino-Sanchez, director Seymour Sanchez

They will make their pitch to producer Elise Jalladeau, screenwriter Miguel Machalski and sales agent Emilie Georges.

I Carried You Home previously came away with cash from the Asian Cinema Fund. Director Tongpong's short, Wings of Blue Angels, is part of this year's World fest program.
