Following the successful Joseph Calleja concert held last April, the Embassy of France will be organizing on the 17 of June 2013 the event ‘Cine Malte: les possibilités d’une Ile’.  This event will be held at the beautiful ‘Louxor- Palais de Cinéma’, unique art-déco hall, which has just recieved a major facelift by the City of Paris.  This event will be among the very first to be organised at this magical location which had been part of the Paris golden age of cinema.

This event, which is being organised in cooperation with the Ministry of Fioreign Affairs Cultural Diplomacy Fund, will include Maltese productions as well as international productions shot in Malta.  The concept behind this event is to both provide an opportunity for Maltese directors and producers and also to promote malta as a filming destination.  Several well known French producers have in fact been invited for this unique event which is the first of its kind in Paris by Malta.

The embassy is also working towards establishing film-cooperation agreements with France in a bid to provide more opportunities for Maltese film producers and directors to develope their talents further and to have more opportunities where they can show their work.
