6th La Fabrique des Cinémas du Monde

La Fabrique des Cinémas du Monde has been developed by working closely with the Festival de Cannes and the Marché du Film. This professional program invites every year directors and producers who develop their first or second feature film at the Festival de Cannes.

Located at the heart of Cannes Film Festival’s international village, the pavilion is a unique venue dedicated to filmmakers from Africa, Asia, Latin America, Central and Eastern Europe, and the Near and Middle East. As a platform for working and networking opportunities, it has become the place to be for artists, professionals and international institutions seeking information on world cinema during the festival.

In order to share his experience with young professionals, Walter Salles has accepted to be the patron of the 6th edition of the Fabrique des Cinémas du Monde program. He will hold a master class for directors and producers on Friday 16 May.

This year, the 10 projects selected at La Fabrique des Cinémas du Monde are :

All The Dead Ones, Caetano Gotardo and Marco Dutra, Brazil
