This is the number of meetings held during the Film Market in Tokyo between the 28 participating French sales agents and the 28 Japanese distributors who came to meet with them. In addition to the two days in Tokyo, discussions have continued in Yokohama throughout the festival, particularly as a number of French sales companies were not able to meet with all of the distributors during the market. Let us hope that these meetings will be highly productive: in 2018, 53 French films were released in Japan. The most successful majority-French production shot in French released in Japan in 2018 was Maria by Callas (a film that nonetheless generated the largest part of its attendance figures in 2019), which attracted a total of 84,961 spectators.
