Founded by the Swiss actor Vincent Perez, this annual event celebrates the history of cinema
Between 7 and 11 March 2019, this event includes a large number of screenings and meetings between the public and professionals, including actors, producers and directors, but also with important personalities of 7th art who will share their experiences and knowledge of the sector. Last year, big names like Michel Hazanavicius, Thierry Frémaux and Léa Seydoux made the journey to Lausanne. There’s also a chance to (re)watch some classics and find out about new filming techniques, including virtual reality or 4DX. The event is organised with the support of the Cinémathèque suisse, whose aim is to preserve and showcase film archives from around the world.
