Every Autumn, over 8,000 industry leaders converge in Santa Monica for eight days of deal-making, premieres, seminars, networking and parties. In one week, more than $800 million in motion picture production and distribution deals are sealed—on both completed films and those that haven't started shooting yet.
But what is the AFM really about? It's about people. It's about acquisition and development executives, agents, attorneys, buyers, directors, distributors, financiers, producers and writers pursuing the business of film. It's about film professionals from around the world reconnecting with friends and building new relationships.
The AFM is the home of independent film. Everything about independent production and distribution—a truly collaborative process—takes place at the AFM. So we invite you to join us... at your home… the American Film Market.
