Feature Films Competition

"I’d missed that image." These words have stood as the common thread running through this year's programme. Coming from seven countries, with very different subjects, these films find their complementarity in their ability to put images on new representations. We had definitely missed that very way of seeing cinema.

— Natacha Seweryn


€15000, offered by Ciné +, will be awarded to the distributor of the winning film. A €3000 grant, offered by the Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine, will be awarded by the director of the winning film. €1000, offered by the SACEM, will be awarded to the best French film music composer.

Compétition Contrebande

Produced outside of conventional funding schemes, each of these films responds to the necessary and urgent nature of creation in its own way. Inventing stories is also inventing a way to produce and direct them. Four feature films and seven shorts make up this year's selection.

Short Films Competition

This year’s eight short films were obvious to us. They deal with desire, dogs, risk-taking and love. Each of these unique universes more importantly makes way for strong film personalities.
