Appearing to ignore the international economic downturn, the European Film Market, an adjunct to the Berlin Film Festival (or "Berlinale"), has sold out all its exhibit stands, even as it expanded its exhibit space, Efm Director Beki Probst said in a statement today (Tuesday). "All exhibit stands at both Efm locations are completely booked. Buyer and seller registrations from Europe are particularly stable at present," she said. Last month the festival indicated that it will be converting all video material into a uniform digital format for screenings at the festival and the film market.
