Festival start: 07 June 2024      Festival end: 16 June 2024

You know it better than anyone: making a film of less than 4 minutes requires a lot of talent and creativity. That's why the Très Court has been honoring them for more than twenty years with its International Festival, which takes place simultaneously in June in about fifty places on the five continents. The screenings take place exclusively on the big screen, in theatres or outdoors, for an audience as faithful as it is fervent.

The Très Courts are divided into six selections, two of which are in Competition: International Competition, Women's Words Competition, French Selection, Family Selection, Documentary Selection, and the Laugh(before the end of the world) Selection.

Whether you are a novice or a professional, classic or avant-garde, as long as your film does not exceed 4 minutes, do not hesitate to try your luck, especially since the registration of your film(s) is free. All genres are accepted: fiction, documentary, animation, CGI, drama, comedy, documentary and even gore or horror films.

The films in competition are viewed by a jury of professionals chaired by a film personality (Keyvan Khojandi, Audrey Dana, Michel Hazanavicius, Aure Atika, Eric Judor, etc.)

The Jury awards :
- the "Grand Prix" of 1500€
- the Prize for Originality of 500€
- the Animation Prize of 500€
- a Prize of 500€ is also awarded by the votes of the Public
The members of the Jury may also award one or two Special Mentions to encourage the author.

A specific Jury composed of personalities committed to fight against discrimination against women awards the Women's Rights Prize endowed with 1000€.
