Tired of unsuccessful pleas, they have finally decided to voice their claims in Kinshasa, after a long journey down the Congo River.

A conversation on the near future of film distribution across all streams
The panel will be held at 18:00 (Cannes Time, UTC+2)
What will be the future of film distribution? Big changes are happening not only because of the pandemic this year, but also with the digital world influencing audiences' habits. We talk to experts from sales, distribution and exhibition about what they are learning from audiences in the unusual year of 2020, and what they think will be the future of film distribution from cinemas to VOD. What will happen to theatrical windows? How are VOD deals changing? What still drives audiences to the cinemas?
Speaker: Mathieu Robinet, president, Drive-In Festival; Jan Naszewski, CEO, New Europe Film Sales; Imrun Islam Senior Manager, Digital Sales, UK and Ireland, StudioCanal (UK); Neal Block, Head of Theatrical Distribution and Marketing, Magnolia Pictures
