Martin Scorsese Masterclass in Cannes

 

 

 

Lumière Festival 7th edition reveals the Program

 

 

 

From Monday 12 to Sunday 18 October 2015

The 7th edition of the Lumière festival will be held from Monday 12 to Sunday October 18 in Lyon. Last year, 135,000 festivalgoers attended 320 screenings in 65 venues in the Lyon Metropolis. This year, there will be new features to discover and experience, to take full advantage of the films, the city of Lyon and the festival week.

The spirit of the festival:

Created in 2009 by the Institut Lumière, the festival has become one of the largest international festivals of classic cinema. Once a year in Lyon, the birthplace of the Cinematograph, the cinema world celebrates the vitality and memory of film, taking a contemporary journey through works of the past (restored films, retrospectives, tributes...). Thanks to all the participating theaters, the festival shines across Lyon and its surrounding area, reaching a wide audience.
At the heart of the festival, the Lumière Award is given to a film personality for his or her entire filmography. After Clint Eastwood, Milos Forman, Gérard Depardieu, Ken Loach, Quentin Tarantino and Pedro Almodóvar, Martin Scorsese will receive the 7th Lumière Award!

- Opening Night at the Halle Tony Garnier: Monday, October 12 
- Lumière for Kids at the Halle Tony Garnier: Toy Story by John Lasseter Wednesday, October 14 at 2:30pm
- Cine-concerts at the Auditorium: Cine-concert: An evening at the Gaumont-Palace! Wednesday, October 14 at 8pm and Cine-concert - The Passion of Joan of Arc Sunday, October 18 at 11am
