Cyprus Film Commission Chairman Lefteris Eleftheriou has invited filmmakers and other industry stakeholders from around the world to meet with Commission representatives at the upcoming ‘Berlinale’ Berlin International Film Festival.

In a LinkedIn post, Eleftheriou says, “Connect with the Cyprus Film Commission at Berlinale! Interested in discussing opportunities? Email me to schedule a meeting between the 16th and 18th of February at leleftheriou@investcyprus.org.cy”

The Berlinale is one of the largest public film festivals in the world, attracting tens of thousands of visitors from around the globe each year.

“For the film industry and the media, the eleven days in February are also one of the most important events in the annual calendar and an indispensable trading forum,” the event’s website points out.

Cyprus’ attraction as a filmmaking destination has been highlighted in recent years, with a film made on the island, 'Find Me Falling', starring Harry Connick Jr and directed by Stelana Kliris, in 2024 topping the Netflix Weekly Top 10 most-watched list, among other successes.
