As part of our fundraising efforts, we are therefore for the first time giving private investors the possibility to participate in the financing of films produced by Pathé. We are offering the opportunity to invest in a solid, acyclic and growing asset and to contribute all the while to the creation of a heritage catalogue on the long term, which Pathé has been building over the years, explains Frédéric Fiore.
