The Three Continents Festival (French: Festival des 3 Continents) is an annual film festival held since 1979 in Nantes, France, devoted to the cinemas of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. It was founded by Philippe and Alain Jalladeau. The top award in the festival's competition is the balloon-shaped Montgolfiere d'or. In conjunction with the festival is the Produire au Sud ("Producers of the South"), a project that provides funding to independent film productions from Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
On the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of Produire au Sud in 2021, Director Guillaume Mainguet organised a retrospective and commissioned a series of interviews, produced by Julia Hammett-Jamart.
