Filmfestivals.com and CFC Media Lab in partnership with Telefilm Canada and Cineuropa.org are proud to present another installment of our Future of Cinema Salon Series at the Cannes Film Festival.
This year promises to be a stellar line up that includes MingleTalk at the Canadian Pavilion — an event that will be brokering conversations around the future of distribution amongst a varied group of maverick directors, rebellious producers and daredevil distributors. We will also be hosting in the Palais our annual Future of Cinema Blockbuster Panel that brings together nternational voices around the table, plus a special hands-on demo of some of the most innovative works coming out of Canada, including Late Fragment a critically-acclaimed dramatic interactive feature film which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
