Under the bucolic and pastoral gaze of Alain Guiraudie, the 58th edition of the Directors' Fortnight presents 19 feature films and 9 short films as part of our new selection.
We will be presenting works from 19 countries on five continents, with notable contributions from a number of countries with little or no international exposure, such as Nigeria, Sudan, Guatemala, Venezuela and Cyprus.
We are delighted by the significant presence of documentaries (3 features and 2 shorts) and animation (3 features and 2 shorts as well), showcasing highly distinctive works that demonstrate the exceptional richness and vitality of both forms.
The 2026 selection brings together established filmmakers, emerging voices (including 6 debut features), and directors whose artistic voices are still taking shape.
Finally, we are honored to host a special event: the premiere of Alain Cavalier's latest film. He was among the pioneering discoverers of new films and talents at the start of the Fortnight. We are extremely proud to present the final installment of his filmed diary.
Welcome aboard Directors' Fortnight's journey around the world!
