IFP Week is the place where savvy industry insiders discover new talent and projects – first.
September 15 – 20, 2018
Featuring a curated selection of over 150 new feature, documentary, series and VR projects in development-post production from over 22 countries, it is a must attend event for financiers, distributors, producers, executives and festival programmers to access bold, original talent early.
As the oldest and only co-production market in the U.S., IFP curates over 5000 customized meetings for executives during IFP Week at its Project Forum. Additional opportunities for discovery occur at Lab Showcase Screenings, Reading Series and Meet the Programmer Meetings.
