Tenerife: Docusur Market Festival
| November 10, 2007 12:00 am | to | November 17, 2007 12:00 am |
Docusur Market is the most important international forum of documentary film professionals in southern Europe with focus in Southern Documentaries.
It is directed to producers and filmmakers who are developing projects seeking for funding or ready made programmes that need distribution. Projects which are produced in the rest of the world and talk about these regions or about North- South relations also can be included in this section.
The breathtaking landscape of Guía de Isora, with an average annual spring time temperature of 24º, the modern communications and infrastructures of the Island, and the prestige of its lodging structures, make this location from the south of Tenerife the ideal space as meeting point for producers and documentary filmmakers and representatives from television channels.

Continent American Independent Film Festival
Cinéma Le Latina
The second edition of the Continent American Independent Film Festival will take place in Paris in 2008. This event has become an important showcase for independent American cinema in France, screening films that are too often overshadowed by larger-budget productions.
The objective is to create a place where film-lovers and professionals can meet in a convivial and festive atmosphere to discover and celebrate the best films produced independently from the American Continent.
Twenty four or so films are to be presented in 2008. Those twenty four films have never been released in France and will be in official competition. One prize will be awarded by a public jury.
Another film, out of competition, dedicated to a director, a writer, a producer or an actor particularly representative of the American independent movies production will be presented in “second”.
