Crossing new cinema and contemporary art, this unique platform in Europe provides a rare opening on contemporary audiovisual practices. Documentary approaches, experimental fictions, videos, hybrid forms: the programme of Rencontres Internationales is the result of a thorough research and of invitations to some artists.
In the presence of 80 artists and filmmakers from all over the world, this edition introduces a brand new international programme, comprising 120 works from 40 countries. By bringing together internationally renowned artists and filmmakers with young and emerging ones, the audience will attend indoor screenings – premieres, special events, video screenings, performances and forums led by artists and curators, who will share their experience and views on new audiovisual practices and issues with the audience.
