CANNESERIES INDUSTRY, the B2B program of CANNESERIES, takes place at the heart of the Festival and will hold its second edition on February 15, 16, and 17, 2027. Born from the belief that human connection should be at the center of the series industry, and building on past editions, this event offers a unique format designed to foster authentic and constructive exchanges.
CANNESERIES INDUSTRY includes private sessions reserved for producers, broadcasters, composers, screenwriters, students in writing, casting directors, docuseries professionals - forming the Festival's Clubs. These clubs create a privileged space with a limited number of participants, a bubble of creativity in which they share their current issues and their vision for the future of their profession.

The CANNESERIES Docuseries Club is a think tank dedicated to documentary series. At the heart of the festival, alongside the official selection, it brings together around twenty creators, producers, broadcasters, and industry experts to analyze current trends and imagine those of tomorrow.
What are the new narrative territories for documentary series? How are production and distribution models evolving? Which emerging formats could shape the years ahead?
Over two working sessions, Club members exchange and debate their observations, experiences, and insights to map the future of docuseries. These discussions are then distilled into a pitch deck, titled “Trends in Docuseries”, which is shared with the wider industry and highlighted in the specialized press.
The goal is clear: to make CANNESERIES a moment of collective reflection that sends a strong, inspiring signal to the global industry.
- A unique opportunity for around fifteen actors and actresses to showcase their talent internationally
- Talents who speak one or more foreign langages, both established and newcomers
- Sourced by French talent agencies

- Make the casting process less virtual, bringing it back to real-life interaction, and restoring the human connection
- Sharing a special moment and taking the time to truly meet people
