AFI FEST
PRESENTED BY AUDI
Los Angeles, California - USA
October 30 to November 9, 2008

In the Spotlight this week is the 22nd Annual AFI FEST, one of the most influential film events in North America. AFI FEST highlights the work of undiscovered, cutting-edge filmmakers alongside premieres from some of Hollywood's most respected directors.

Acquisition of feature films for global distribution has become a routine occurrence at AFI FEST. Last year alone, 23 of the Festival's official selections secured US and/or foreign distribution, or sold remake rights, involving companies CineClick, IFC Entertainment, Seville Pictures, Tartan Films, THINKFilm, The Weinstein Company, Zeitgeist, and more.

Celebrated works such as MONSTER; OSAMA; CITY OF GOD; LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL; TSOTSI; AMORES PERROS and O BROTHER, WHERE ART THOU? have all been launched at AFI FEST. Academy Award qualifying in the short film categories, AFI FEST is also the only film festival in the US to hold the prestigious FIAPF accreditation.
