How to reach Europe's most coveted audience - French cinemagoers!
When it comes to showing a commitment to cinema, French audiences do more than their fair share. As Europe’s largest theatrical market, with 180 million cinema tickets sold last year, if there was ever a territory to secure it is France. In addition, with French theatrical distribution opening doors for national financing, there’s even more reason to aim for French distribution. But the landscape is competitive, and the model can be complex. We bring some of France’s most interesting distributors to discuss this coveted market, and how to reach it!
