In this colloquium, with the title 'Restarting the activity of cinema, exchange of rights, production, distribution, and exhibition ... new habits? new paradigms?', professionals from the film industry from different fields shared their experience in international markets on the negotiation of film adaptation rights for books to become films and how the pandemic is affecting them.The table had the participation of:
- Anna Soler-Pont, literary agent and producer of the Pontas agency (Traces of Sandalwood, Cold Skin, The Baztan Trilogy).
- Manuel Monzón, executive producer of A Contracorriente films responsible for films such as the Goya award for Best Film The Bookshop, by Isabel Coixet.
