For this 2022 edition, the organizers of the Saint-Jean-de-Luz International Film Festival have innovated by dedicating a day to short films. It began with the screening of the 8 films in competition followed by a debate: moving from short to feature film. After the deliberation of the juries, the prize-giving ceremony with the revelation of the winners took place at the beginning of the evening before the screening of the film by Stéphane Freiss “You will choose life”.
