Films programme

Territoires cinématographiques is a space for dialogue between the performing arts and cinema, created in collaboration with Avignon's Utopia cinemas. It's a daily gathering of film screenings, at the end of which the public meets and exchanges with theater artists, choreographers, filmmakers, activists, critics and journalists invited to the Festival d'Avignon. It's a space designed to explore the intimate relationships these guests maintain between disciplines and with the world. It's a place where we can take a closer look, both large and small, at the themes brought to the stage, the territories of the guest language, and under the plane trees of the Café des idées.

Retour au futur - Avignon

By JUNO // Portugal // 2024 // 22"

Two people talk about two places that have disappeared or been transformed. Places that exist only in memory, and that resurface when evoked by those who remember them, their affections and their disaffection. A guided tour of the past and present, with concerns for the future.

Improbable dos à dos

By JUNO // Portugal // 2024 // 60"

Two people who have never had a conversation arrive for a blind date. They answer questions about humanity, the planet, politics and the future. Only at the end do they discover who is on the other side. Do we try to get closer to each other, or do we emphasise our differences?

Screening followed by a discussion with Inès Barahona and Miguel Fragata.
Moderated by Hugues le Tanneur, journalist with Transfuge magazine.
