Mayenne’s “Reflets du Cinéma” Festival to Showcase Global Cinema This Month
Mayenne, France – Film enthusiasts in the Mayenne department are gearing up for the 27th annual Festival Les Reflets du Cinéma, a ten-day celebration of international film kicking off this month. Organized by Atmosphères 53 as 1997, the festival has become a cornerstone of the region’s cultural calendar, drawing over 25,000 attendees annually.
This year’s festival promises a deep dive into the cinema of a featured country or territory, brought directly to audiences across Mayenne’s ten cinemas – from the bustling city of Laval to smaller, local venues. But “Reflets du Cinéma” is more than just screenings.The festival distinguishes itself through a robust program of accompanying events designed to foster dialog and understanding. Attendees can look forward to conferences, exhibitions, live shows, practical workshops, and professional round tables, all aimed at enriching the viewing experience and exploring the themes presented on screen.
Adding to the festival’s appeal, approximately twenty guests – including directors, actors, journalists, and academics – will be present to engage with the public in a relaxed and conversational setting.
“Reflets du cinéma” aims to build bridges between cultures, resonating the cinematic traditions of its featured country with the Mayennais community. Atmosphères 53 achieves this through strategic partnerships with local cultural and social organizations, integrating complementary art forms like music and exhibitions to create a truly immersive experience.
