Welcome to the Equator Film Expo (EFX), Southeast Asia’s newest and most exciting new film industry rendezvous point, where we encourage, develop, foster and connect film businesses within the local industry and the rest of the world.

EFX draws on the energy, warmth and creativity of the dynamic and flourishing Indonesian film industry to provide a series of international-scale events incorporating a Film Forum, Film Fair and Film Fest which bridge the gap between East and West.

The inaugural Film Forum, to be held in Indonesia’s creative hub, Jakarta, from 27 – 30 March, 2015, comprises a conference series, master classes, workshops and panel discussions focusing on French know-how. Delegates will be able to draw on the expertise of film professionals from France, the world’s second-largest exporter of film after Hollywood, gaining valuable insights into how a similarly creative, culturally rich and linguistically independent country can create a successful, profitable and sustainable international film industry.

Daring, edgy and always informative, the exciting suite of events at EFX is expected to draw film professionals, government, industry institutions and the wider general public to explore and celebrate the dynamic and creative world of film. (and will be followed later in the year by a Film Fair expo and trade show and a Film Fest festival with premiers, red carpet events and Awards night.)

We extend a warm welcome for film makers and film lovers from the local region and around the world to join us in Jakarta in March to learn from international professionals from a wide cross-section of industry segments, and pick up their winning formulas and secrets to success.
