Shoot the Book! is an initiative designed to turn top literary works into films — all through a lively two-day event in Cannes!
Initiated by SCELF (Civil Society of French-Language Publishers) and the Marché du Film — Shoot the Book! presents each year a curated selection of books ripe for screen adaptation.
The program invites publishers to attend the event in Cannes, providing a platform for them to connect with international producers who are keen on adapting the latest and hottest IPs in literature.
For film producers, Shoot the Book! offers a unique opportunity to discover fresh literary film projects and spark new collaborations through its main events: Pitching Session, Rendez-Vous (one-to-one meetings) and an annual Masterclass to identify the latest practices, trends and major players in the audiovisual rights markets.
