The American Film Market is where independent films get bought, sold, financed and packaged. Producers, sales agents, distributors and financiers from around the world meet in Los Angeles for six days of deal-making, plus conferences and panels on financing, distribution and the business of independent film. If you are developing a feature, AFM is one of the best places to learn how the market really works.
