The Kuala Lumpur Communications & Creative Industry Mart (KLCCIM) and International Film Festival Malaysia (IFFM), originally slated to run alongside one another this November, have been put back four months. Malaysia’s Information Communication and Culture Ministry secretary-general Datuk Seri Kamaruddin Siaraf made the announcement at MIPCOM.
Launched softly at Filmart in March and confirmed in official announcements in May, the event was proposed along similar lines to Hong Kong’s Filmart, running alongside a festival and hosting a market, project market and financing forum, awards bash and some digital-focused events.
