Key Players in the 2011 Cannes Market: Fortissimo Films

Date:

For the Sales Agent stationed in the Netherlands, 2011 could be considered an off year with only two titles (Leila Kilani’s Sur La Planche and Corman’s World gets some replay value) in Cannes. Put they have a solid selection of Asian titles in the pipeline and two Brit titles in Kevin MacDonald’s Marley and Michel Winterbottom’s The Promised Land which we look forward to with much anticipation.
