Each project receives personalised support through one-to-one and group meetings with key players in the film industry.
Selected directors and their producers will be invited to take part in the programme, which aims to encourage talented young filmmakers, during the Festival de Cannes. The excellent workshops and abundant professional contacts have already helped several films and projects find co-production and international distribution opportunities.
