Festival overview

About 45es Rencontres Du Court-métrage ’image In Cabestany’

Physical film festival in Pays Catalan, France with submission categories including International and Catalan.

In 1981, André ABET and the city of Cabestany decided to create the First Encounter Short Film Festival of Cabestany. It is truly a encounter, more than a festival, because everything is planned to promote exchange between audience and directors, like the numerous “verre de l’amitié” (friendship toasts), offered after each screening.

Always a fun and friendly moment!
