Pre-MIPCOM Spotlight: Forum des images

CANNES: Since its creation in 1988, the Forum des images has held a special place in the heart of Paris’s audiovisual landscape.

Its original mission was to compile a living memory bank of the audiovisual collection of Paris. It now hosts yearly programming screenings, events and discussions focused on celebrating the moving picture in all its forms. Coming up, Forum des images will host the fifth edition of its Series Mania Festival, taking place April 22 to 30, 2014. The purpose of the festival is to reflect the quality, diversity and creativity of TV series from all over the world. It is also hosting a second annual Co-Production Forum, from April 23 to 25, 2014. “This Co-Production Forum was launched with great success last year,” says Laurence Herszberg, the general director of the Forum des images.
