Canada Pavilion | Canada Stand No. 127

Canada is back on the Croisette at the 78th edition of Cannes Film Festival.

Located at the heart of the Marché du Film, in the Village International, the Canada Pavilion is welcoming over 300 Canadian delegates –one of whom could be your next coproducer!

5 films and one XR work are in the Official Selection! In Official Competition: one short film, HYPERSENSITIVE (animation), in the prestigious Director’s Fortnight: two feature-length films, AMOUR APOCALYPSE (PEAK EVERYTHING) (romantic comedy) and LA MORT N’EXISTE PAS (DEATH DOES NOT EXIST) (animation – coproduction Canada, France) and one short film, BREAD WILL WALK (animation), in the Immersive Competition, the XR work THE DOLLHOUSE (coproduction Canada, Luxembourg) and finally, in the Cannes Classics programme, SUNSHINE produced by Robert Lantos (Serendipity Point Films, Canada) and Andras Hamori.

For a seventh year, the Canada Showcase, initiative of Telefilm Canada produced in partnership with Les Rencontres internationales du documentaire de Montréal, will be part of Cannes Docs. A selection of four feature-length documentaries in the finalization stage will be pitched to an audience of accredited professionals. Over the years, Cannes Docs has featured several Canadian documentaries which have gone on to great success, receiving significant accolades and recognition on the international festival circuit.

We are honored to be partners on the Marché du Films fourth edition of impACT Lab, a program designed to help foster coproduction and guide emerging producers in creating meaningful, enduring, and hard-hitting films.

Telefilm Canada is thrilled to promote its classic Not Short on Talent program at the Cannes Short Film Corner. This year, seven short films will be unveiled to the industry. The Not Short on Talent delegation will benefit from an exclusive mentoring opportunity via training and a pitch session. All seven films will be available in the VideoLibrary during the Short Film Corner.

Don’t miss the Canadians films by emerging talents presented at the Proof of Concept and the Buyers Showcase of Frontières! Frontières is the world’s leading international co-production and networking market, focused on genre film financing between Europe and North America.

Our industry programming aims to demystify coproduction on both sides of the Atlantic. Learn more about the whole Canadian Cannes’ programming, including our coproduction panel in our programming section.
