[Competition] French independent short films

A program of ten short films – selected amongst more than 350 submissions – that map our country and era in a certain way, by delicately questioning genres and territories.

Unforgettable images, bursts of laughter, new tones of voice that we will continue to cherish for their unveiled fragilities, the subtlety of things left unsaid, the power of their desires and the ardor of their anger. Ten works that all together allow their protagonists to become one, to find each other (again), to claim their place and to sometimes exist even beyond the frame.

A succession of gazes that allow us to see the other differently  and that offer them the possibility to see themselves differently, with strength and love.
