Tokyo Gap-Financing Market 2026 highlights international co-productions

The seventh edition of the Tokyo Gap-Financing Market (TGFM) concluded in late October 2026 at the Tokyo Port City Takeshiba Port Studio. Held as part of TIFFCOM, the market affiliated with the Tokyo International Film Festival, the event serves as a strategic platform for producers to secure the final portion of budgets required to move projects into production.

This year’s selection featured 24 original projects, characterized by a strong emphasis on the horror genre and international co-productions. While Japanese productions remained prominent, the lineup included a significant number of foreign projects, reflecting the market's goal to act as a global hub for audiovisual exchanges and a key node for Asian cinema financing.
