Meetings and Workshops

MUSIC & FILM MASTERCLASSES

Each year, in partnership with SACEM and 22D Music, music in film is showcased through a series of conferences led by renowned professionals. 

MASTERCLASS FEMME DE CINÉMA

The Festival welcomes the Lab Femmes de Cinéma, a think tank working on the theme of women's place in cinema, through workshops and masterclasses aimed at film professionals and the general public. In the past, students have had the opportunity to meet Karine Viard, Mona Achache, Veerle Beatens, Julie Gayet, Rebecca Zlotowski, Valéria Bruni-Tedeschi, Noémie Lvovsky, and others. .

In 2025, the ‘Femme de Cinéma’ masterclass will be dedicated to Isabelle Adjani, guest of honour at the Festival. This will be a unique opportunity to discuss her career, her vision of cinema, her experiences and her commitments. In partnership with Le Lab Femmes de Cinéma, this event will be hosted by Fabienne Silvestre and Pierre-Emmanuel Fleurantin, co-founders of the Festival.

MASTERCLASSES GUESTS OF HONOUR

Each year, some of the biggest names in cinema are honoured. Retrospectives of their work, as well as masterclasses, are organised in their presence, giving students the opportunity to share a moment with them.

MOVING MOUNTAINS PROGRAMME

'Moving Mountains' offers a wide range of screenings, debates and workshops all designed to raise questions and stimulate reflection on the major issues facing society: ecological transition, parity, gender diversity and living together. With this in mind, a number of films in the line-up have been given the 'Moving Mountains' label, so that viewers can easily spot productions that bridge the gap between societal issues and cinema. These screenings are accompanied by workshops, debates and meetings to exchange ideas and generate reflection.

AND SO MUCH MORE…

The Festival works hand in hand with teachers to organise workshops and meetings to support their educational projects.
