A meeting-place for the short film industry!

The Marketplace is a platform open to ideas and debates, and to the promotion and distribution of Canadian short films, catering to both Canadian and international film industry professionals. Some of the Marketplace's main features are discussion forums, a script-reading session, a get-together with the directors, information workshops and much, much more!

This Marketplace is the ideal event where film professionals and fans alike can gather to extend their knowledge of the global status of short film. Attendees can indulge their curiosity by asking questions, networking and sharing their experiences. It's also the perfect opportunity for film buffs to share, exchange and discuss original ideas about the promotion and development of the short film industry.

Every year, buyers, distributors and festival programmers from Canada and Europe come to the Festival to view Canadian short films. To help them, we have set up a special viewing room with individual viewing stations as well as a film catalogue. Here, these professionals have the chance to keep up to speed with the latest emerging talents and to discover future trailblazers in the film and television industries. It's also an excellent opportunity to purchase films for their catalogues or television programming.

In the past 4 years, the advancement of our Marketplace has proved that a meeting-place and a discussion platform are essential to short film professionals. REGARD's Marketplace has made a name for itself by creating a warm social atmosphere that encourages meetings between artists and buyers as well as the exchange of knowledge between experienced professionals, promising young talents and students.
