WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND

There is nothing more productive than seeing the entire global catalogue of available films and new projects at AFM.  

Enter the headquarters for film buyers, where 100’s of sales companies unveil 1,000+ new films and projects from around the world for the first time. American Film Market is the most anticipated event for acquiring rights to new films because production companies have developed a wide range of projects since Cannes — more than $1 billion in deals close here each year.

AFM’s convenient campus connects you with sales companies from around the globe, providing unmatched opportunities both for business and for reconnecting with your valued community, all without the distraction of a film festival. Location is key — the market’s beachfront Santa Monica locale allows you to build relationships within the Hollywood community, home to more film industry companies and professionals than anywhere else in the world. AFM is more business-oriented than any other film market, and time spent here will yield returns.

Buyer Registration opens on July 5, apply for accreditation now if it’s your first time attending.
