The boom in inward investment from international shoots has benefited Central America\u2019s film industries. Elisabet Cabeza reports on an EFM panel hosted by Screen International and Panama Film Commission.<\/p>\n

Local and inter\u00adnational filmmakers came together at the European Film Market on Sunday, February 23 for the \u2018Shooting in Central America and the Caribbean\u2019 panel, sponsored by Panama Film Commission, in partnership with Screen International<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The panel got underway after an introduction by Richard Kilborn, Panama\u2019s national director for the promotion of investments. Abner Benaim, the Panama-based producer, director and screenwriter, and founder and CEO of Apertura Films, explained how he has enjoyed a front-row seat for the transformation of the country\u2019s film industry.<\/p>\n

Benaim\u2019s debut feature, dark comedy Chance<\/em>, was the first to be released theatrically in Panama in 60 years when it opened in 2010, while his 2014 documentary Invasion<\/em> was Panama\u2019s first submission to the Academy Awards. Most recently his documentary Ruben Blades Is Not My Name<\/em> picked up the audience award at SXSW in 2018 and was subsequently selected to represent the country at the 2019 Oscars.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen my first film came out, 10 years ago, there was nothing, really,\u201d Benaim said of Panama\u2019s industry. \u201cNow we have a very good film festival, a film commission, a film law, a film fund, a film school and courses at the university. Five to six films are made every year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Inward investment from international film and TV shoots has played a major part in helping to forge a thriving local industry. International productions are drawn in part by Panama\u2019s financial incentive that offers a 15% cash rebate on production costs of at least $3m incurred in the country. Recent productions to shoot in Panama include Warner Bros\u2019 The Suicide Squad<\/em> (aka Suicide Squad 2<\/em>) and Antena 3 and Netflix\u2019s Money Heist <\/em>series.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe country has a very interesting geography,\u201d said Benaim. \u201cYou can go from one location to another that looks completely different in a very short journey.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am often asked about the incentives by other producers, but I think you also need to have good chemistry with the local industry \u2014 find out who is who so you not only fall in love with the landscape but also the people you\u2019ll be working with and tailor your production strategy accordingly,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Prabhakar Sharan, vice president of the Indo Latin American Chamber of Commerce and also an actor, director and producer based in Panama and Costa Rica, said: \u201cInter\u00adnational shoots have played a key part in [creating] more and more skilled local crews [in these countries].\u201d<\/p>\n

Sharan was born in India but has developed his filmmaking career in Central America. He made Enredados, La Confusion<\/em> in 2018, a Latin American take on a Bollywood-style film, and works to increase collaboration between the Bollywood industry and Central America. \u201cThe new government is supporting the industry a lot,\u201d he said of Panama\u2019s appeal.<\/p>\n

Both he and Benaim are optimistic that a new law will come into force in which the incentive will change from a 15% tax rebate to a 30% tax deduction. \u201cHopefully it\u2019s going to be passed soon,\u201d said Benaim.<\/p>\n

\n

Antonio Saura, executive director of Madrid-based world sales company Latido Films, a force in both Spain and Latin America, emphasised the importance to the local industry of balancing the appeal of the incentives and locations to international producers with the need to ensure the local production sector also benefits.<\/p>\n

\u201cWelcome the big industries that bring in money and have a further impact in tourism, with the policies that support the talent \u2014 the talent that will tell the stories from those countries,\u201d Saura said. He referenced the Dominican Republic, which has facilities including the Pinewood Dominican Republic Studios run by Lantica. \u201cBefore, [the local industry] was producing two to three films a year. Now it\u2019s up to 30.\u201d<\/p>\n

Companies such as Latido are always on the lookout for new filmmakers and partners from the region, he explained. \u201cAt Latido we have distributed films from Costa Rica, Cuba, the Dominican Republic,\u201d said Saura. \u201cWe are always scouting for talent. I\u2019m happy to see how things are changing for the better, with very interesting policies in development in the area.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the Dominican Republic, for example, [it feels like] there has been a \u2018before\u2019 and \u2018after\u2019 the new law. It shows policies can help foster talent.<\/p>\n

\u201cPanama was the first; the number of productions per year has increased noticeably. With new talent come new audiences too. Puerto Rico and Guatemala are also developing very interesting films. The context of the market is very challenging, but I see a very positive evolution in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n

An example of the new talent emerging from Central America is the Costa Rica-based director Valentina Maurel, a participant in this year\u2019s Berlinale Talents. Her short film Paul Is Here<\/em> won the Cinefondation First Jury Prize at Cannes in 2017. Her second short Lucia En El Limbo <\/em>screened last year in Critics\u2019 Week at Cannes and at Toronto International Film Festival.<\/p>\n

She is now working on her first feature, The Burning Garden<\/em> (El Jardin En Llamas<\/em>). Maurel described how her return to Costa Rica after years spent studying in Europe inspired her filmmaking career.<\/p>\n

\u201cBack in Costa Rica I decided to make a short before embarking on a first feature to find out how to work there,\u201d she said. \u201cI realised the value of the human potential aside from the beautiful and diverse landscape.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ad industry has helped in developing very skilled crew. It struck me that the crews are very versatile. In Europe people tend to specialise more and more \u2014 in Costa Rica people can work in different departments and that\u2019s motivating.\u201d\u00a0
