Since 2005, the Lebanese Office of Tourism in France in collaboration with Fondation Liban Cinema and IDAL, Investment Development Authority in Lebanon, assure the presence of the national pavilion at the Film Market, Pantiero International Village to promote the Lebanese cinema production.
This year, the Lebanese cinema industry was omnipresent during the festival with two very important projects
The screening of Ila Ayn by Georges Nasr, the first Lebanese film that was selected in Cannes Classics after its first screening in Cannes back in 1957. The film was screened in its restored version and in the presence of Georges Nasser with the collaboration of Abbout Productions.
A press conference with Georges Nasser, Maya de Freige and Myriam Sassine was held at the Lebanese pavilion after the screening in the presence of international journalists and reporters who were interested in covering this event
The official screening of the “Lebanon Factory” project at the fortnight section, “La Quinzaine des Realisateurs” at the festival.
4 short Lebanese films directed by 4 young talents, Mounia Akl, Ahmad Ghossein, Shirin Abou Shaqra, Rami Kodeih from Lebanon and Manuel Perrone, Lucie La Chimia, Neto Villalobos and Uma Gunjak from Europe worked together on the films
The screening was a success, the filmmakers were able to meet with lots of international festival programmers, distributors and producers to work on their next feature films
In the presence of 600 invites, a Lebanese party was held to celebrate the Lebanese presence in Cannes and to celebrate the Lebanese cinema
Throughout the festival, the FLC team held many meetings and the Lebanese pavilion welcomed the international festival programmers, labs and producers interested in the Lebanese Cinema in order to create Lebanese partnerships in the future.[/fusion_text][youtube id=”V0JcRBZ28Q0″ width=”400″ height=”280″ autoplay=”no” api_params=”” class=””][/youtube][youtube id=”BeDGK0TdN48″ width=”400″ height=”280″ autoplay=”no” api_params=”” class=””][/youtube][slider width=”90%” height=”90%” class=”” id=””][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”no”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_9050.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”no”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_9053.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”no”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Screen-Shot-2017-06-04-at-10.13.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/photo-cannes-2.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/press-conference.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/maya-georges-pavillon.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Screen-Shot-2017-06-04-at-10.11.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_8737.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_8813.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_9049.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_9287.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_9438.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/pavillon-general.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Screen-Shot-2017-06-04-at-10.17.jpg[/slide][slide type=”image” link=”” linktarget=”_self” lightbox=”yes”]http://l5i.c3c.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/IMG_9060.jpg[/slide][/slider][/one_half][/fullwidth][imageframe lightbox=”no” lightbox_image=”” style_type=”none” bordercolor=”” bordersize=”0px” borderradius=”0″ stylecolor=”” align=”none” link=”” linktarget=”_self” animation_type=”0″ animation_direction=”” animation_speed=”0.1″ hide_on_mobile=”no” class=”” id=””] [/imageframe][fusion_code]Q2xpY2sgZWRpdCBidXR0b24gdG8gY2hhbmdlIHRoaXMgY29kZS4=[/fusion_code]
