The producers and companies on this list had to be based in Europe (including the UK), producing features that might be made for their local markets but that are capable of travelling internationally, including at festivals, on the theatrical circuit or on platforms. Naturally, our fundamental criteria in drawing up the list was shortlisting producers and companies for whom co-production is the name of the game, who regularly work with partners across Europe (and often beyond) to make their productions happen. The European film production landscape is the most intricate and extensive in the world - a rich, deep network of smart, creative people encouraged and incentivised to work together across borders, embedded within a union of nations (never mind Brexit, impossible as it is to ignore) bound in economic, social and political collaboration.
