From
November 30 to December 9, the "Rencontres Internationales
Paris/Berlin/Madrid" will create a space of discovery and reflection
betweennew cinema and contemporary art in Paris: 
• at the Centre Pompidou, 
• the Jeu de Paume national museum,
• the Châtelet Theatre.

With the presence of 120 artists and filmmakers from all-over the world, this rare event will propose an international programme of film, video, multimedia. It includes many film premieres, a video program,multimedia concerts, a cycle of debates and panel discussions.
A video library will offer a space where the whole programming, made up
90% of premieres, can be viewed and reviewed on request.    


This year's programme has been selected from 5500
submissions as well as by invitations made to certain artists and
filmmakers. It is the result of an elaborate international search for
works: 150 works from Germany, France, Spain and 50 other countries, made up of internationally-known artists and filmmakers as well as young artists and filmmakers presented for the first time.
