From November 28 to 30, the 25th Rencontres Cinéma et Vidéo celebrates a quarter of a century of independent creation.
The Regard Indépendant association organizes the 25th Rencontres Cinéma et Vidéo in Nice, from November 28 to 30, 2024. The festivities will take place in three emblematic venues: the Espace Laure Ecard, the Jean-Paul Belmondo cinema, and the Variétés cinema. This event is part of the Autumn of the Image, a local initiative that honors cinema, video, and photography.
For 25 years, Regard Indépendant has been promoting emerging cinema and the use of Super 8. This technical and aesthetic tool remains at the heart of the Rencontres, bringing together enthusiasts around an artisanal and demanding cinema. Through its collections, the association has produced nearly 300 films by various creators.
Highlights for all audiences
The event will begin on Thursday, November 28 at 8 p.m. at the Espace Laure Ecard with an opening night dedicated to Super 8. The program will include a collective film, works by guest director Rémy Batteault, and cine-concerts mixing music and image.
On Friday, November 29, Rémy Batteault will offer a Super 8 workshop at 109. The day will continue at the Jean-Paul Belmondo cinema with themed screenings on music and cinematic memories. The public will discover works by Vivian Ostrovsky and Pedro Maia, among others.
On Saturday, November 30, the Variétés cinema will host screenings of Super 8 classics and recent films. In the evening, the Grand Evening of Super 8 will present shorts filmed and edited using a method where editing is done directly during shooting.
