2020 

 Films and audiences again!

A Festival is always difficult to build, but this one even more so, with uncertainties, new rules, a complicated financial balance to find, but we are once again embarking on the adventure...

For this 34th edition of the International Film Festival of Vébron, which will take place from 20 to 24 July 2021, once again the richness and cultural diversity will be honoured. This

This year, we have received 354 films from 35 countries, 43 of which will be in official competition. Since its creation, the Écran Cévenol association has always campaigned to keep the Festival free. A "solidarity" Festival wishing to offer everyone access to culture with all screenings free of charge. A "rare" Festival, where it is possible to enjoy all kinds of works (documentaries, fiction, animations, clips, films for the general public...). A "local" Festival, in a rural area, where you can meet professionals from the film, theatre, radio and television industries.

Many of you support us every year, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. A big THANK YOU to all our institutional and private partners, who have supported us for all these years. We will not forget those without whom this Festival would not exist: the 40 volunteers who have worked tirelessly to ensure that this event continues since 1988.

Around the screenings, you will be able to discover exhibitions, take part in training courses, meet prestigious guests in the streets of the village, without forgetting the musical evenings, moments of relaxation after these very busy days, or even eat in the village square.

We would also like to thank the many regular spectators, as well as the directors and producers who send us their films and who come to discover or rediscover these magnificent Cevennes landscapes.

Come in great numbers! Support the oldest cultural event in the Lozère department, in a spirit of conviviality and a warm and festive atmosphere.

Have a good Festival !
