About Frontières
Frontières is internationally established as the leading industry initiative for genre film professionals. It is organised by the Fantasia International Film Festival, with the participation of the Marché du Film - Festival de Cannes.
At Frontières, we connect genre filmmakers with industry professionals and promote co-production and collaboration with Canada & Europe. Since 2017 Frontières has produced 3 annual events: the Frontières International Co-Production Market (July, at the Fantasia International Film Festival in Montreal, for projects in development & early financing); the Frontières Finance & Packaging Forum (a closed lab for projects at the midway point in their financing, taking place at the same time as the Co-production market in Montreal); and the Frontières Platform at the Marché du Film - Festival de Cannes (May, for projects in advanced financing & post-production).
