The fourth edition of the Investors Circle concluded at the Marché du Film in Cannes with eight auteur projects seeking private funding, where Carine Tardieu won the €20,000 ArteKino International Prize for her project All the Little Live Things, produced by Antoine Rein and Fabrice Goldstein for Karé Productions. The two-day program, which took place on the Plage des Palmes, combined keynotes and panels on the growing role of brands in film financing with a private pitch session, while presenting directors included Juho Kuosmanen, Felipe Gálvez, and Magnus von Horn, among others, with budgets ranging from €1 million to €12 million.
