In their own words

“These companies are involved in several aspects of film distribution: marketing, dubbing, subtitling, advertising and prints. Some also manage video and television rights and have activities in film production and theatrical exhibition. With such a representative and multi-national industry, it is important for the association to represent distributors’ interests at the European level.”
