WHAT IS THE MARCHÉ DU FILM DE CANNES?

Today, over 12,500 film industry professionals head to Cannes each year to present and discover almost 4,000 films and projects in development at 33 screening venues.

The Marché Du Film Online is intended to mimic the market experience in Cannes with live and real time meetings. It will offer creative alternatives to facilitate business and networking for film industry professionals from all over the world.

The Marché du Film was born in 1959 during the 13th edition of the Festival de Cannes to help film industry professionals meet and do business against the backdrop of the buzzing atmosphere of the Festival. When it first launched, the Marché du Film was an entirely new step for the film industry, creating an inspirational environment that encouraged professionals to up their business game. The conditions for working, screening films and meeting other professionals were much like the Festival itself: flexible and easy-going. People swapped business cards and projects took off.Over the years, the Marché du Film and the Festival de Cannes formed two sides of a single coin to become a key global event for the world of cinema.

The Marché Du Film will run from July 6-15, 2021 in hybrid format with the 74th season of Festival de Cannes from July 6-17, 2021 onsite.

4-year-old ANINA MACARAYA is faced with the greatest tragedy in her life when her mother goes missing while out fishing in the sea. Upon consulting a spirit doctor who feels her mother’s presence in a vision of a golden sea turtle in Turtle Island, Anina decides to heed the signs, thinking that she might still find her mother there. Together with her best friend BOGS, they embark on a tumultuous journey to find her mother. But the crashing waves leave them marooned in an uncharted island inhabited by sea turtles. To their surprise, the island has become a site for illegal turtle poaching by foreign Chinese fishermen led by HAROLD, a Filipino wildlife trader. Harold himself also made it to the island as a matter of desperation. Before making it there, he committed an act of violence: in his attempt to protect his parental rights against his wife’s insistence that she keep sole custody of his young daughter, he inadvertently kills her. Thus, meeting the foreign poachers in Turtle Island serves as a coincidental escape.

At Turtle Island, Anina and Bogs find themselves in deep trouble when they cross paths with Harold and the Chinese turtle poachers. With nowhere to run, Anina is cornered, prompting her to jump towards the edge of the poacher’s boat and into the water, discovering its depths with an unlikely ally in the form of a golden sea turtle, the mythical creature which brings good tidings to those who are able to see it.
