HanWay Films is a leading international sales, distribution and marketing company specialising in high-profile quality films from worldwide talent. HanWay arranges financing, sales, marketing and distribution for all films, and works with visionary filmmakers and exciting new voices to launch commercial and critical success stories, globally.
Peter Watson, Vice Chairman of HanWay Films, said:
"Creative Europe support is part of the life-blood of European and British films sold by HanWay. It supports our distributors in the UK and across the continent. It deploys critical P&A funding without which our film culture would be diminished. Its help underwrites HanWay's marketing and acquisition budgets and it specifically encourages us to look outwards to forge filmmaker and producer relationships across our great continent. Great cinema is borne of collaboration, cross-fertilisation and openness. These are the values of Creative Europe that we all share."

HanWay also received distribution funding through Creative Europe's Sales Agents scheme in 2014, 2015 and 2016.
