Frontières is the world’s leading international co-production market and networking platform focused on genre film financing and co-production between Europe and North America.

Organized by the Fantasia International Film Festival, in partnership with the Marché du Film, the Frontières Platform in Cannes brings together financiers, sales agents, distributors and festival programmers with today’s up-and-coming genre film talents and their captivating projects!

The Frontières program includes two key presentations: Proof of Concept, showcasing genre film projects in advanced financing stages, and Buyers Showcase, highlighting genre film projects in the post-production stage. These presentations are complemented by a networking lunch connecting Platform projects with industry professionals, and concluding with the Fantastic Night, a celebratory event dedicated to the genre film community.
