Île Courts Festival invites you, all scattered as you are around the island, on a surprising world tour at the heart of contemporary short films. In movie theatres or right under the stars, at the university or the cultural centre, the festival’s screen unfolds itself this year in Rose-Hill, in Réduit, at Bagatelle, in Chemin Grenier, in Tamarin, in Trianon and in Port Louis, for the pleasure of all our audiences.

The screenings are split between:

• the Indian Oceanic programme
with films gathered through the call-for-submissions of the 2015 Île Courts Festival released in countries of the Indian Ocean, South Africa and India, and in collaboration with our partner festivals, namely the Film d’Afrique et des îles Festival (Réunion Island), the Comoros International Film Festival (Comores) and the Rencontres du Film Court Festival (Madagascar).


• the international programme
in collaboration with the Clermont-Ferrand Festival (France), the British Council (UK), the Islands project of the Indian Ocean Commission, the Asian platform VIDDSEE (Singapoure) and the Trinidad+Tobago Film Festival (Trinidad and Tobago).

In order to valorize Mauritian artistry in the eyes of our audience(s) and international invitees, each screening will highlight at least one Mauritian film.

All the screenings are free.
During indoor screenings, input from the public will be very welcome!
