Filmkunst Messe is also a forum for discussions on marketing and the potential of selected films, and a place for various seminars, workshops, and panel discussions on changes in the film industry. The market is also aimed at presenting international films to film distributors and selling German rights. The twelfth edition of Filmkunst Messe in Leipzig is scheduled to run from September 17 through September 21.
