Atlántica Guion is an Ibero-American alliance aimed at promoting the co-production of audiovisual projects, driven by isLABentura Canarias together with the script-laboratories ‘Algo en Común’ (Colombia) and ‘Histórias Que Viajam’ (Brazil). The initiative was created with the aim of strengthening collaboration between territories and promoting the international reach of new screenplays.
One of the network’s main strengths lies in fostering co-production from the earliest stages of project development, encouraging collaboration among creators and the development of stories with international potential. María José Manso, Director of isLABentura Canarias, noted that “working together and as a network is, nowadays, the only real way to ensure that projects reach the highest standards of excellence and competitiveness in the global market.”
Over the coming months, ‘Atlántica Guion‘ will organize virtual meetings between Ibero-American screenwriters to promote knowledge exchange, address the shared challenges facing the profession, identify new opportunities for collaboration, and launch its first online training workshops, which will be announced shortly through its official website.
The Alliance was presented during Cali Screenwriting Week, held from June 22 to 26 in the Colombian city. The next event is planned as part of Ventana Sur – the Latin American arm of Marché du Film Cannes – which will take place during the first week of December in Montevideo, Uruguay.
