The Meet Them! program is an initiative by the Industry Department of the San Sebastián International Film Festival, aimed at bringing together audiovisual professionals from various regions. Its goal is to provide direct access to the festival, expand networking opportunities, and promote collaboration on film projects. Producers, directors, and other professionals with projects in development, pre-production, or production are selected, primarily feature films and documentaries with international co-production potential. The call is launched through local or national entities, which manage registration and participant selection. Selected participants join networking activities, presentations, and meetings during the festival. Applications typically require submitting a project technical sheet, dossier, CV, and motivation letter by the established deadline. It is a unique opportunity to connect with the global film industry and boost project visibility and funding.
