How we work

One process, two paths

The starting point changes depending on whether your project is a feature or a short film, but the criteria we work with are the same in both cases.

01

Direct evaluation

Our team reviews every project in person. No external committee, no automated screening, no volume deals.

02

Editorial fit

We only take on projects that fit Tártaro's line: auteur fantastic cinema and genre horror, whatever their format or origin.

03

Direct management

We negotiate festivals, theaters, VOD and platforms ourselves, without middlemen diluting the deal. DCP and subtitling are done in-house; dubbing is coordinated with partner studios.

04

Follow-up

You'll know which festivals, theaters or platforms carry your film and how its journey is progressing.

Frequently asked questions

Can I show you several projects at different stages (one finished, one in development)?

Yes. Each project is evaluated separately, whatever stage it is at.

Do you work with projects outside fantastic or horror cinema?

It's not our specialty, but we're not closed off to other genres — we work with all kinds of genres.

Do you charge to evaluate the project?

No. The initial evaluation is free, whether it's a feature or a short film. An agreement is only put in writing once your project joins the catalog (feature films) or enters distribution with one of our plans (short films).
