Three Continents Festival
The Festival of the Three Continents (French: Festival des 3 Continents) is an annual film festival held since 1979 in Nantes, France, and is devoted to the cinemas of Asia, and Africa and Latin America. It was founded by Philippe and Alain Jalladeau.[1][2][3] The top award in the festival's competition is the balloon shaped Golden Montgolfiere.[1] In conjunction with the festival is the Produire au Sud, or Producers of the South, a project that provides funding to independent film productions from Asia, Africa and Latin America.[1]
