impACT is the Marché du Film’s transversal initiative designed to spark essential conversations that pave the way for a more inclusive, responsible and forward-thinking film industry.
Launched in 2021, impACT intersects with several key Marché du Film programs, bringing fresh perspectives across various sectors and fostering dialogue on the critical issues shaping today’s cinema landscape. From representation and inclusion to environmental sustainability and ethical practices, impACT addresses challenges that affect the entire industry. Through dynamic panels and masterclasses, participants are invited to explore some of the latest key challenges, such as: How can we better support underrepresented filmmakers and communities? How do we ensure diverse voices are authentically represented in storytelling? What actionable strategies can we adopt to foster equity throughout the production process?
In addition to these discussions, the impACT program features impACT Lab, a specialized workshop to equip emerging producers with the skills and expertise needed to bring their impactful projects to life.
By bringing together industry leaders, changemakers, and emerging voices, impACT serves as a catalyst for long-term transformation and positive change in the film industry.
Access to impACT conferences and panels is open to all Marché du Film badge holders, while impACT Lab is exclusively available to pre-selected producers chosen in collaboration with our partners.
