Traditional TV style commercials are outdated, their rules don’t apply on the internet. The viewer gains minimal awareness of a
brand – if at all and simply clicks the commercial away. Unfortunately they are still the most common advertisement on the internet. Due to this valuable marketing funds are not used to their full
potential. We change this. With our webseries product we provide
you with an easy solution that boosts positive customer awareness
by far. Webseries are a new way of entertainment, that drive positive emotion while creating brand association. It sets you apart
from the competition and your marketing profits from a maximised
viral effect. With this fresh approach you can maximise the experience of your customers, while we keep highest quality standards
at cost effective rates.

narrow interests. These forums should become a valuable network

Desplechin all started at la Semaine.Within its research of new
filmmakers, la Semaine has always paid great attention to short
and medium length films, first steps in the career of a director. It is
by presenting their short films that la Semaine de la Critique revealed the talents of François Ozon, Gaspar Noé and Andrea Arnold. Each edition gives La Semaine de la Critique an opportunity
to reveal 20 filmmakers.
The Competition category is composed of 7 feature and 7 short
films. 3 feature and 3 medium length films are presented in the
