Coming of Age is a student short film screening project.
These are study works produced by students. In collaboration with the association Allers-Rétours - Chinese Auteur Film Festival, the project is dedicated to student films made by Chinese students in China and in France. This event is set up by Xutong LIU, a student in the Master Audiovisual Production and Film, as part of her real-life project (PGR).
In the program, you will find 7 short films of all genres: fiction, animation, documentary, and experimental film, coming from major film and art schools in China and France:
- La Fémis
- Beijing Film Academy
- Gobelins
- Le Fresnoy
Coming of Age seeks to create a dialogue between the two countries through cinematic visions: all the filmmakers were born and raised in China.
The same culture, but with different upbringings; the same period of life but different points of view; Chinese cinema revealing itself and the timeless French style, the manifestation of all these fascinating differences is what Xutong Liu wishes to present to the public.
The screenings will take place on Wednesday, June 30 and Thursday, July 1. Live online on the 25e heure platform, here are the links:
