After eight years of presence at the Marché du Film, the Slovak and Czech pavilion is moving to a new location within the International Village. During these eight years, the Slovak cinema experienced several significant changes and progress: not only has the yearly production almost doubled since the start of the new millenium, but also many of Slovak films have been present at the most important film festivals throughout the world, receiving numerous awards and bought to several new territories for distribution, gradually making the Slovak cinema a reliable brand.

Moving to a new location could be seen as a symbol of movement and entering a new phase of the Slovak cinema. The pavilion will now be available at the opposite part of the Village International than in the previous years. 

The pavilion No. 132 will be available for film professionals interested in Slovak audiovision, but also it will be is a platform for meetings of Slovak film professionals. New and upcoming Slovak films will be presented in the Pavilion, as well as the promotional materials: the Slovak films 11-12 catalogue, the brand new and re-designed Upcoming Slovak Films 12-13 catalogue or the Report on the Slovak Audiovisual Situation in 2011 catalogue published by MEDIA Desk Slovakia.

The presence of Slovak cinema is organized by the Slovak Film Insitute, with the financial support of the Slovak Audiovisual Fund and the Ministry of Culture of the Slovak Republic and the partnership of Château Topoľčianky.
