There are some 4,000 films being sold at this year’s Cannes Marché du Film, the world’s leading film bazaar held in the depths of the Palais des Festivals where sellers from 140 countries are hawking their goods with colorful, often outrageous fliers and posters adorning the market’s roughly 300 stands.

A stroll through its halls provides a panoply of snapshots of the current state of the global film industry which, while it may be struggling as it contends with the onslaught of streamers and TikTok, is still finding a way to produce outlandish movies — from the big-budget to the no-budget, the high-concept to the batshit crazy.
