Unifrance’s 10 to Watch Initiative Spotlights Rising French Talent

Unifrance has announced its 10 to Watch initiative, which aims to highlight emerging French film talent. Established in 2014, the initiative seeks to enhance the visibility of these artists on an international scale. The selection of the ten featured talents is made by a committee composed of international journalists.

The class of 2026 will be officially recognized at a special lunch event during the Cannes Film Festival, scheduled for May 20. This initiative continues to play a significant role in promoting new voices in French cinema, providing a platform for these artists to gain exposure and connect with global audiences.
