Masterclasses: the 2023 Guests

Each year, the three Guests of the edition embody a certain vision of the Festival and of the cinema. Through these three cinematographic worlds, we endeavour to put forward an idea of the cinema(s) we wish to defend – a partial definition of the richest and most exciting gifts that contemporary cinema has to offer. Do not miss the masterclasses of Lucrecia Martel, Alice Rohrwacher and Jean-Stéphane Bron!

The 2023 balades thématiques
