The festival is also hosting the International Film & TV Market, running 17 - 19 June. The full spectrum of the film production process is covered here, including film financing, production, post-production, SFX, VFX, distribution, marketing, legal services, games, etc., with last year’s edition attracting 251 foreign and domestic exhibitors. As part of the Market, the SIFF Project is selecting and presenting projects to professionals from filmmakers across the world. Their aim is to facilitate Sino-foreign co-productions and to increase support for projects already in production, by providing them with back-end resources such as domestic and international film distribution, film festival opportunities and, last but not least, access to exhibitions.
