The 2026 IBERMEDIA Program call for support in Ibero-American film co-productions is open from January 30 to March 30, 2026. It targets fiction, documentary, and animation projects involving co-production between at least two independent producers from member countries within Ibero-America.
No specific production dates are set, but selected projects must begin principal shooting or animation within the timeframe established after the call closes. The program accepts international submissions as long as they are from member countries, promoting regional collaboration and strengthening the Ibero-American audiovisual market.
This support line focuses exclusively on feature film co-productions, encouraging the creation of projects with potential for regional distribution and circulation. The program aims to boost established projects that can be realized with production certainty, fostering the Ibero-American film industry through cooperation between producers and industry professionals.
