The Montreal International Film, TV and Video Market


The Montreal International Film, TV and Video Market will be held from August 25 to September 4, 2000 as part of the World Film Festival. The Market Office will be located at the Salon Jeanne-Mance of the Wyndham Hotel in the Complexe Desjardins.

The Market is at once a meeting place and a business centre that attracts over a thousand television and film professionals from around the world. The European Film Promotion, an umbrella association of nineteen promotion, funding and export organizations, representing 18 countries, will attend the Market. The MECLA (Mercado del Cine Latino americano) will participate with organizations and producers from seven South American countries.

As reported by the trade magazines and confirmed by many professionnals, the World Film Festival and its Market are unique. No other event in North America offers such a wide selection of quality films.

With over four hundred films screened every year at the Festival and more than 700 hundred titles at the Market Video Library, the Montreal Film Market is a buyer's paradise. In recentt years, almost every foreign film that was succesful in America had its North American premiere in Montreal.

The Market also features a Symposium dealing with important - and often controversial - industry related topics. Panelists include high profile executives from some of the most successful companies in their fields.

The Montreal International Film, TV, and Video Market is a must attend event for anyone involved in the film industry.
