Work In Progress

The Work in Progress is a presentation of European projects in post-production. Around 14 projects are presented during a special screening during the Industry Village. 7 to 8 minutes of excerpts of each project are screened in front of industry professionals (sales agent, distributors, festival programmers…) by their teams. They're selected by Frédéric Boyer, Artistic Director of the festival, and the executive team.
The call for projects is now closed.
