Eight French and international films in competition this year (all previously unreleased in theaters in France), and eight jurors (under 35 years old) to decide between them.
In parallel with the official competition, Nouvelles Vagues also offers more than thirty films, including a selection chosen by six guests of honor who each offer their film which according to them best evokes this youth. Among them, Alice Diop, Alain Chabat, James Franco but also Matt Dillon.
