List Your Film for Distribution

Are you ready to take the next step in sharing your film with the world? Cannes Film Agency provides a platform where distributors, sales agents, and other key stakeholders actively browse for new projects.

Your film is showcased in a curated catalog, designed to attract industry professionals seeking projects that align with their audience.

Gain Access to a Network of Industry Decision-Makers

Our platform is a destination for distributors, sales agents, and acquisition professionals who rely on Cannes Film Agency’s catalog to discover films with market potential. This visibility provides an opportunity to receive offers from stakeholders interested in distributing films that match their target audiences.

Theatrical Release in Cannes

In addition to your online listing, our expert jury selects films deemed viable for a theatrical release to screen in an independent cinema in Cannes.

Screenings are held during the MIPCOM Film Market in October and three days before the Film Festival in May, for you to have a theatrical release in Cannes.

How It Works

  1. Submit Your Film: Create a listing with detailed information, including project highlights to engage distributors.
  2. Gain Visibility: Your film is added to our catalog, where acquisition professionals can discover projects aligned with their distribution goals.
  3. Theatrical Screening Opportunity: Our jury evaluates each film for potential theatrical release. Films deemed viable will be invited to screen in Cannes during MIPCOM in October or just before the Cannes Film Festival in May. Selected films may secure a time slot for screening by paying a per-minute fee.

By listing your film with Cannes Film Agency, it becomes part of a curated catalog that distributors and licensing professionals actively explore. This listing helps your film gain visibility among industry stakeholders who can reach out with licensing interest if they see potential in your project.

Films that attract distributor interest often have unique elements, such as a compelling story, strong visuals, or well-known cast members. Popular genres, award recognition, and a well-defined target audience can also increase a film’s appeal to distributors.

The top 10 films selected by our expert jury are invited to book a screening slot in our independent theater in Cannes. Screenings are offered during the MIPCOM Film Market in October and three days before the Cannes Film Festival, providing unique exposure in a prestigious location.

No, Cannes Film Agency operates independently from the Cannes Film Festival. We are a separate organization based in Cannes, dedicated to helping filmmakers gain exposure and connect with industry stakeholders.
