As early as in 2001, the German documentary Association AG DOK started developing a structure to enable filmmakers to make best use of the internet’s promise and moreover, we founded the OnlineFilm AG. The irony today is that pirates first took over the market, and now international multi billion dollar companies have become our competitors.
We want to discuss: how to confront the pirates and how to bargain with the market in order to retain our online rights to make best use of them.
