For the last several years, the association focus on the organization of the international  event called FESTIVAL DES 3 CONTINENTS.

It also programs various events which present films coming from the southern hemisphere (previews, thematic programs, retrospectives and carte blanches...), that create ongoing opportunities to favor exchanges between professionals coming from these southern countries and its audience. In addition it develops throughout the year, various audience awareness programs (specially focused on public school pupils and special needs groups) and decentralized regional screenings.

Since 2000, it has developed international co-production training workshops that are held in the city of Nantes (during the Festival) and since 2004 also abroad (in partnership with other international film festivals) under the generic title PRODUIRE AU SUD

This diversification of activities conducted by the Association has provided:

• a better visibility and recognition of the overall support given to the cinema of the South and professionals involved

• a systematic and regular presence of the association during key cinematographic and audiovisual events

• a reinforcement of the Festival's authority, as it is now perceived as a promotional showcase and the outcome of a more wide-ranging effort carried out throughout the years

• a better perception of the FESTIVAL DES 3 CONTINENTS as a true networking and programming upshot conducted throughout the year by the organizing team

• an identity and geographical identification to the city of Nantes, to its Département (Loire-Atlantique) and its region, which lead through the association a joint subsidized global support program for cinemas of the South.
