COMPANY PROFILE

Based in Paris and Ber­lin, Copro­duc­tion Office is a lea­ding inter­na­tio­nal dis­tri­bu­tor and pro­du­cer of bold, auteur-dri­ven films, known for their dar­ing con­tent and distinc­ti­ve cine­ma­tic lan­guage.

Foun­ded by Phil­ip­pe Bober, Copro­duc­tion Office has been instru­men­tal in laun­ching and sup­port­ing the care­ers of pio­nee­ring direc­tors.* Bober has pro­du­ced over for­ty films, most of which have been sel­ec­ted for the main com­pe­ti­ti­ons at Can­nes, Venice, and Ber­lin. The­se films have gar­ne­red num­e­rous pres­ti­gious awards, inclu­ding: the Gol­den Lion in Venice for Roy Andersson’s A Pige­on Sat on a Branch Reflec­ting on Exis­tence (2014), and two Pal­me d’Or at Can­nes for Ruben Östlund’s The Squa­re (2017) and Tri­ang­le of Sad­ness (2022).

Our inter­na­tio­nal sales divi­si­on repres­ents films pro­du­ced by Phil­ip­pe Bober, sel­ec­ted acqui­si­ti­ons, and res­to­red clas­sics by mas­ter film­ma­kers such as Rober­to Ros­sel­li­ni, Már­ta Més­zá­ros, and Kon­rad Wolf. Over the past deca­de, Copro­duc­tion Office has also expan­ded orga­ni­cal­ly, diver­si­fy­ing its acti­vi­ties to include:

The pro­duc­tion of visu­al art

An art gal­lery

A wine bar in Ber­lin and the import of orga­nic wines

We offer an inter­na­tio­nal, col­la­bo­ra­ti­ve, and fast-paced work­place. Team mem­bers bene­fit from strong col­le­gi­al sup­port, meaningful respon­si­bi­li­ties, cross-depart­ment­al invol­vement, and oppor­tu­ni­ties for care­er advance­ment — all while con­tri­bu­ting to the work of some of today’s most exci­ting and visio­na­ry direc­tors and artists.
