MIOB – Moving Images Open Borders is an association of seven European Cinema Festivals, active since 2017 and co-funded by the Creative Europe Media programme for the purpose of developing strategies for sustainable, long-term cooperation.
The association member festivals differ in terms of size and location (they are based in Austria, France, Germany, Lithuania, Italy, Serbia and Spain), but share numerous approaches as regards audience targets and artistic direction. They therefore saw MIOB as an opportunity to work on common denominators to promote themselves and improve the quality of their offering.
