The market runs alongside the Jogja-Netpac Asian Film Festival (JAFF) and is sponsored this year by Amar Bank. It has set up the program to steer visiting producers toward Indonesian partners.

Each participant will get a tailored calendar of pre-booked meetings with teams from the JAFF Future Project selection, rights holders from JAFF IP Connection, exhibitors and other delegates.

Meetings will be matched to each producer’s background and interests, with conversations ranging from adaptation and financing to co-production and release.

“We want international producers to see and experience Indonesia as a creative and production partner, with stories, talent and companies they can make films with,” said Linda Gozali, market director of JAFF Market.

“Producers Exchange is designed to move those conversations towards joint development, financing and access to audiences, and to build partnerships that continue long after the market closes.” Malaysia’s Wong Kew Soon produced “Snow in Midsummer,” which won the Firebird Award for best film at the Hong Kong International Film Festival.
