The
Clubs

CANNESERIES Industry also includes private sessions reserved for producers, composers, screenwriters, and casting directors — the four Clubs of the Festival.

These clubs are thought by our teams as “boutique” events, with a tailor-made program over 1 or 2 days, in Cannes, with a limited number of international participants, a creative bubble where they can share their current challenges and their vision for the future of their profession, with hopefully the beginning of stories to be written at CANNESERIES! 

 

  • Between 40 and 50 screenwriters from all over the world, as well as a hundred alumni from previous seasons
  • Both established and emerging profiles
  • A 2-day Think Tank with roundtables and panels 
  • An opportunity for screenwriters, whose position is often solitary, to meet and exchange ideas
  • Opportunities to meet attendees of other clubs, including the Producers Club 

 

  • 70-80 French and international producers
  • A tailor-made program with a limited number of roundtables and panels
  • Informal quality time to meet each other and attendees of other clubs, noticeably the screenwriters
  • One day in common, and one day focused to drama for some producers, and on docuseries (The Docuseries) for others
