Silhouettes Festival 2023: a free and confidential open-air cinema


Nothing planned tonight? Celebrate the end of the holidays with your head in the stars with an alternative pop concert before letting yourself be lulled by short films by committed directors who are among the most promising of their generation. After 22 years of good and loyal service, the Silhouettes Festival is not ready to stop and is indeed celebrating its big comeback on the heights of the Parc de la Butte du Chapeau Rouge in the 19th arrondissement. Will you be part of it?

On the program for this festival like no other? Nine evenings of free screenings of short films, preceded by open-air concerts at cocktail hour, with a daytime program for children and debates. The Silhouettes Festival is also meetings around cinema, a young, rich and demanding program, mainly oriented towards the international. The Festival thus takes you this evening to Brazil with the documentary fiction of Gabriela Gaia Meirelles and Clara Anastácia in which you will follow the daily life of Rose, self-proclaimed guardian of an empty dwelling which is unfortunately not hers... Then you will go to Beirut in Lebanon thanks to the production of Roy Arida on mourning and the last wishes of an old woman before finally reaching Estonia with this astonishing animated film on the journey of a mysterious and apathetic man. One thing is certain, this varied selection will arouse your curiosity and satisfy every movie buff in need of discovery.
