A new edition, a new team, new competitions… and a new name for the Luchon Festival!
Since its inception, the Festival has put the spotlight on emerging talent and new works, proudly taking its place among the major audiovisual events. For this year’s edition, with a new team under the presidency of Audrey Dana and Maurice Barthélemy, the tradition of prestigious awards is being continued, while at the same time promoting our magnificent Pyrenean region.
The Luchon Festival rewards original fiction and documentaries and combines artistic excellence, educational commitment and conviviality, offering an authentic experience.
Competition:

– Drama: rewarding series, single films, productions, scripts, actors, etc.
