At the cinéma les 3 Luxembourg - 67 rue monsieur le prince 75006 paris
Debates/Conferences

A sort of trademark of our biennial event, the debates after the evening film screenings are essential for putting the projected or commonly-held perspectives into the bigger picture, and totally enriching the festival-goer's experience.

Each debate is moderated by a journalist from one of the most known publications in France. Among the specialists participating this year are ex-diplomates, activist bloggers, historians, researchers and professors. Here is the programme:
