As a cinephile with a knack for deciphering the nuances of film narratives, I find myself captivated by this intriguing array of upcoming films. Each title promises an immersive journey into different realms – from the fantastical to the suspenseful, and from the humorous to the heart-wrenching.
Starting from November 5th to 10th, the American Film Market is shifting locations and will now take place in the vibrant city of Las Vegas instead of its traditional home in Santa Monica. This change brings about a new venue for over 300 exhibitors who will be setting up their stalls at the Palms Casino Resort. Not only will this resort host the AFM Sessions, the conference series, but it will also showcase industry screenings within its own 14-screen multiplex, known as the Brenden Theatres.
Over 285 businesses and institutions from approximately 80 different nations are participating in this year’s American Film Market (AFM). The event’s management team has declared that all exhibition spaces at the Palms Casino Resort have been sold. Notable countries like China, France, Germany, Italy, Romania, and Thailand will each have designated pavilions showcasing their local businesses and creators. In total, 34 different nations will be present through international trade groups, film commissions, and national delegations.
Here are some of the buzziest films at AFM 2024:
