What is SeM Distribution?
Stop e-Motion (SeM) Distribution is an integrated ecosystem created to promote, distribute, and enhance films and short films, with a special focus on stop-motion animation.
It is part of a larger project, conceived by Quarta Parete, which brings together:
🎥 Stop e-Motion Days, an international festival dedicated to stop-motion (held annually in Venice Mestre at the M9 Museum), and
🌐 a curated distribution plan to accompany selected films into cultural circuits, festivals, and dedicated venues.
Because some revolutions look to the past. SeM Distribution was born from the need to:
Create a network of events and screenings for works that often do not find space in traditional distribution channels.
Support independent filmmakers and productions by helping them reach a wider audience.
Provide cultural curatorship and dedicated communication plans to highlight each individual project.
A tailored distribution plan and service for short films.
Non-competitive selection within Stop e-Motion Days.
Articles and insights in the Quarta Parete magazine and Stop e-Motion Days' media partner publications.
Free registration at the SeM Industry Days 2026.
Reporting and international visibility.
SeM Distribution is not just a distribution service, but a cultural ecosystem that takes care of a film’s journey from selection to promotion:
✅ No value from the work is wasted.
✅ Each project is embedded in a European network of festivals, filmmakers, and curators.
