The Festival is a space for artistic freedom; here are a few tips to help you enjoy it to the fullest:
Marked in green on the schedule: Screenings specifically tailored for young audiences, with the recommended minimum age indicated.
The rest of the program is generally intended for a “mature” audience. Generally for ages 14 and up, unless otherwise noted: some screenings include a content warning (!) while others are family-friendly for ages 10 and up (*)
For audience members who would like details on sensitive topics featured in the films, you can now refer to the Trigger Warning.

Un rat aussi imposant qu'espiègle s'est installé chez notre protagoniste. Il siffle en rythme avec la radio, s'assoit dans le réfrigérateur, barbote dans la baignoire et est absolument partout : bruyant, envahissant, débordant de vie. Lorsqu'il disparaît soudainement, le protagoniste réalise une chose : jamais le silence n'a été aussi pesant, ni le vide aussi grand.
An oversized, cheeky rat has moved in with our protagonist. She whistles along with the radio, sits in the fridge, splashes in the tub, and is simply everywhere – loud, pesky, full of life. When she suddenly disappears, he realizes: it’s never been this quiet – or this empty.
