Learn how to make films lovingly, the French way. This circle is entirely dedicated to production and distribution within and with the mother country of cinema. After a café-croissant breakfast, representatives of the Institut français explain the circulation of French cinema worldwide, while sales agent Sebastien Chesneau talks of France's appetite for quality films from abroad. We remain continental with the European Film Academy, which invites Talents to broaden their ambitions. Ask for honest insights from French Talents producers Pilar Peredo and Thomas Hakim and benefit from the advice of the Head of Cinema Andreas Schreitmüller, from cinema-loving broadcaster ARTE.
