FESTIVAL LUMIERE 2015 - October 12 to 18, 2015

Joining the ranks of Clint Eastwood, Milos Forman, Gérard Depardieu, Ken Loach and Quentin Tarantino, it is Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar who will receive the 6th Lumière Award in Lyon this fall.

The Lumière Award was created to celebrate a filmmaker, in Lyon, the very place where the cinematograph was invented by Louis and Auguste Lumière, and where they shot their first film, Workers Leaving the Factory, in 1895. Because we must express our appreciation to the directors and artists of the cinema who fill our lives, the Lumière Award is a distinction reflecting time, gratitude, and admiration.

La 7e édition du festival Lumière aura lieu du lundi 12 au dimanche 18 octobre, à Lyon. L'an dernier, 135 000 festivaliers ont assisté à 320 séances dans 65 lieux de la Métropole lyonnaise. Pour cette nouvelle année, quelques nouveautés seront à découvrir et à vivre pour profiter plus encore de cinéma, de Lyon et d'une semaine de festival.

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.
