The Mise En Scène Company arrives at Cannes with four films certified in Human Provenance in Film. Every frame made by human hands. No generative AI at any stage of production. In a market increasingly shaped by synthetic content, our slate represents a rare commitment to authenticity and craft. We're here to meet with buyers who believe cinema's power lies in genuine human vision.

Human Provenance in Film

MSC is presenting HPF at Cannes Next this year. Every film in our slate carries the No AI Used certification: the highest standard of human authorship in the HPF taxonomy.

We are seeking founding signatories at the market. Distributors, producers, festivals, and streamers who believe buyers deserve to know what they are buying. If you are at Cannes and want to discuss the initiative, come and find us at 2 Rue Felix Faure or get in touch below.
