The event

La vie est plus souvent joyeuse que triste

Life is more often joyful than sad, even when it puts us to the test. Films and poetic voices speak of hope, belonging and the gestures that allow us to move forward. A session in which cinema and poetry respond to one another and open up other ways of looking at life.
