OFF-COURTS TROUVILLE
France/Quebec short film festival
25th edition - September 7 to 13, 2024
2024 Poster
The 25th edition of Off-Courts Trouville is here! This year, a well-known Off-Courts collaborator, the director and illustrator Camille Tardieu, is at the helm of this superb poster of which we are particularly proud.
“They didn’t know it was impossible, so they did it.”
It is this phrase from Mark Twain, used in the opening speech of the 2023 festival, which inspired the visual of the poster. This art of the impossible, through which the festival has managed, for 25 years, to unfold against all odds, tremendously abundant and festive, we know that behind it is an incredible group of lively and creative forces, of hope, of energy, a lot of sweat, a good dose of madness too, in short, an extraordinary human collaboration.
This is where this Off-Courts superhero character comes from, who rushes with its fist raised and triumphant towards the stars, and whose impact, the “bang”, resounds with strong colors and joy!– Camille Tardieu
2024 Selection
The short film selection for this 25th edition is officially announced! Unlimited, unbridled, multicultural, multicoloured, trans-identitarian creativity, with no physical or intellectual boundaries, so that everyone can find their place. Our aim is to entertain, shake things up, bring people together, question and, for the 25th time, make Off-Courts a space of freedom and productive exchange.
