Actor Finn Wolfhard of StrangerThings stars in 'Rules for Werewolves,' a highlight of the first-ever online Marche du Film

Feminist werewolves, Estonian imps and working-class Kung Fu masters will be on display — and up for sale — at this year's virtual Cannes Film Market.

Films that are recently completed or in postproduction will screen footage for buyers, sales agents and festival programmers in the Buyers Showcase, while in-development titles in the advanced financing stages will present in Frontières Proof of Concept section., a martial arts comedy featuring three working-class stiffs out to avenge the death of their Kung Fu master; and Amelia Moses's, a thriller billed as a female twist on the werewolf film.

"Despite the disruptions, the Marché du Film fought to exist in a digital way, and I am sincerely grateful we can be part of it," Mahnert said in a statement. "The filmmakers have all put a lot of work into their projects, and it is capital that they should now be able to share their work with their peers. … I’m looking forward to the industry discovering these gems."
