The Jaipur International Film Festival, World’s fastest growing film festival,
will now be held every year for 5 days from 27-31 January in Jaipur, India.
Every filmmaker can also participate in the THE MERCHANT (Film Market). The concept of Film Market named 'The Merchant' was introduced in JIFF-2011. It is a very important component of the festival. After success in JIFF 2012, we planned to take “The Merchant” to the next level in JIFF 2013.
The Merchant is totally different, unique and special than other film markets.
