American Film Market

The American Film Market (AFM) is an annual industry event where film professionals—from producers and distributors to sales agents—gather to buy, sell, and showcase films. Taking place in Los Angeles, it serves as a major marketplace for financing, licensing, and distribution deals in the global film industry. Participants review film projects, negotiate rights, and establish partnerships to help films find audiences worldwide. AFM’s focus on networking and business development makes it a key moment for launching new movies and shaping the cinematic market landscape.
