Its stated goal is to facilitate the production of films by providing a direct channel for screenplays to reach individuals with funding capabilities, bypassing traditional industry intermediaries. The competition showcases winning scripts and a "Hot 100 List" at major international film markets, including AFM, Cannes, Berlin, Toronto, and Shanghai. It has been operating for over a decade.
