The Málaga Film Festival celebrates the eighth edition of Málaga Work in Progress, highlighting its commitment to the diversity of identities and languages within the Ibero-American region and its audiovisual industry. Its goal is to continue supporting the development of projects by creators from Spain, Portugal, and Latin America.
Málaga Work in Progress consists of two distinct initiatives, tailored to meet the specific needs of the participating films and their creators. Both are designed to support the completion of fiction and documentary feature films in advanced editing or first cut stages, seeking incentives for the post-production process and international distribution.
Málaga WIP España, featuring six titles of Spanish nationality.
Málaga WIP Iberoamérica, featuring six titles from Ibero-America (Latin America and Portugal).
Audiovisual works must be registered with the Film Institute or equivalent organizations in their country of origin, whether these are industry guilds or other officially recognized entities.

Málaga - WIP
Ibermedia promotes the distribution and circulation of non-national films from Ibero-American cinemas within the national territories of distribution companies. This is achieved through proposals that implement traditional, non-traditional, or hybrid distribution and exhibition models, incorporating innovative and creative forms of in-person distribution and/or exhibition. These proposals must also include a promotion and audience plan, aiming to bring Ibero-American cinema closer to regional audiences.

Filmmakers need resources, opportunities, and access to thrive in an unbalanced film landscape. So we match strategically timed grants with creative mentorship and community, building peer networks and bringing artists together to learn from and champion one another. This support system is tailored for the unique challenges women and gender-expansive people experience in their filmmaking and career trajectories. Since our founding, Chicken & Egg Films has awarded over $14 million in grants and devoted thousands of hours of creative mentorship to over 500 filmmakers from around the world. Films supported by our work have been nationally and internationally recognized with the industry’s highest honors, including Academy Awards, Emmy Awards, and Peabody Awards. And they have raised visibility and driven social change on urgent issues.
