20 ANS, 20 FILMS INÉDITS À BRIVE !
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Brive Film Festival, we have created a special retrospective of 20 great medium-length films from the history of cinema that have never been screened before in Brive. A look at the past that highlights the extraordinary artistic heritage of medium-length films by situating it in the present time.
Three thematic axes structure the selection: Stories of brief encounters, amorous or not, which define the space between the self and the other in a delimited temporal dimension; Dreams, visions, hallucinations, horrific or visionary deformations which question subjective perception; Glances from the world, geographical and linguistic explorations between (auto)fiction, documentary and essay which amplify the notions of reality.
