OFF-COURTS TROUVILLE
France/Quebec short film festival
26th edition - September 6 to 12, 2025
The 2025 poster is here!
Since the Off-Courts adventure began, there have been so many parties, film shoots, swimming, walks, laughs, etc. What guest hasn’t been ecstatic with their feet in the sand, facing the sea, when all of a sudden the sun disappears over the horizon!
It was our duty to honour those famous sunsets!
The call for submissions is now open
Short film programming 2025
From over 2300 films received, we have selected 85 short films in various competitive and non-competitive programs. Animation, fiction, documentary, experimental, self-produced, school films, international co-productions, big-budget films or poor films, this year once again proves that it's neither the genre nor the production context that determines the quality of a work. Rather, it's what screenwriters, producers and directors are trying to tell us that makes a film a film that catches the eye! Creation, freedom, diversity, resistance... For the past 25 years, we've wanted to stimulate debate and reflection, without forgetting to have fun and be entertained. It's with this in mind that we've created our 26th program, offering films that reflect the spirit of the times while also allowing for a sense of escape. See you in September to discover the full Off-Courts 2025 program at Trouville-sur-Mer!
