The Riga International Film Festival in Latvia is set to host Magnetic Series, a Nordic industry platform dedicated to drama series and streamers for the Nordic region, Russia, Germany and Greenland.
Aside from pitching sessions, the platform will also host four panels headlined by top producers and streamers who will discuss the future of drama and digital platforms, with focus on Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Russia, Poland, Germany, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, and Greenland. The Latvian government recently ramped up the budget allocated to the film production industry by €2 million to €8.3 million to off-set the damage caused by the pandemic and to boost the production of drama series.
“Now that the film industry is undergoing rapid changes, we want to be ahead of the curve and create an industry platform to discuss this new situation and identify ways to move forward,” said Rozkalns.
