Partners & Collaborations — Marieke, Marieke

What “partner” means for this film

A partnership is not just a logo on a poster. For a title like Marieke, Marieke, the best collaborations are the ones that create context: a screening with a moderated discussion, a festival selection with a meaningful slot, a cultural event that connects the film to themes like family silence, grief, coming of age, and the emotional reality of urban life.

Because the film is intimate and character-driven, it performs best in spaces that value conversation and curation rather than pure scale. If your audience appreciates European drama and realistic storytelling, a partnership around this film can be a strong fit.

Who we collaborate with

We work with organisations and teams that programme films thoughtfully and communicate them clearly. Typical partners include:

• Film festivals - official selection support, Q&A coordination, press assets, catalogue text.
• Cinemas & arthouse venues - one-off screenings, mini-runs, themed evenings.
• Cultural institutes - European cinema series, language/culture programmes, curated talks.
• Universities & film schools - educational screenings, seminars, workshops, study guides.
• Media & press - interviews, features, editorial collaborations, stills and approved synopsis packages.
• Community organisations - events where the film’s themes can be discussed responsibly and respectfully.

Partnership formats

To keep collaborations practical and repeatable, we typically structure partnerships around clear formats:

Festival / curated screening package

• Catalogue-ready synopsis (short and long versions)
• Clean credits block (cast, crew, runtime, language)
• Press stills (web and print sizes)
• Trailer file or approved embed reference
• Suggested programme note and discussion points

Event screening + discussion

The film lends itself to conversation because it doesn’t provide easy answers. A moderated discussion can focus on coping mechanisms, family secrecy, power dynamics, grief, and the difference between intimacy and escape. We can provide a short moderator brief to keep the discussion sharp and respectful.

Educational use

For educational contexts, the film is useful for courses and modules that examine character construction, realism, ethics of representation, and European independent cinema. A good educational package is structured: key themes, scene prompts, and questions that encourage analysis rather than moral panic.

What partners receive

Partners typically need materials that are consistent and easy to publish. Depending on the collaboration format, we can provide:

• Approved film description (programme note tone, not marketing fluff)
• High-resolution stills and captions
• Credits and technical specifications in a clean copy-ready block
• Press-friendly director bio and film background paragraph
• Suggested social copy (short, neutral, accurate)

What we ask from partners

To keep the presentation professional and consistent, we ask partners to:

• Use approved credits and verified facts (title, year, runtime, language, names)
• Avoid sensational framing; the film is intimate, not exploitative
• Confirm publication deadlines early if print materials are involved
• Keep asset handling clean (no heavy filters on stills, no misleading captions)

Partnership inquiries

If you want to collaborate-festival programming, cinema screenings, cultural events, educational use, or press partnerships-send a short message with these details:

• Organisation name and country/city
• Type of partnership (festival / screening / education / press)
• Proposed date or window
• Audience size and venue format
• Your deadline for materials

Clear inputs get a fast, useful answer. Vague “let’s collaborate” messages usually go nowhere.
