“Expanded” visit of the exhibition “We and the others, from prejudices to racism”, Museum of Man, Paris. On 25 June 2017 at 11 am. Unique tour.

A guided tour like no other

Animated films were produced by the visitors of this exhibition as part of the « Animated Cinema Workshops » that we have proposed. A selection of these singular, rich and poetic films “increases” an exceptional guided tour: the films are projected during the visit, the exhibition is enriched by the diversity and creativity of the visitors’ imaginary and imaginary looks.

Since the number of visitors is limited, you have to reserve your place in advance:

Portfolio

Films in a neighborhood... Since 2011, we’ve been offering traveling screenings of short films in a neighborhood or building. These screenings, which require no prior installation, are carried out using a “pico-projector” (a portable video projector that appeared in 2010). This is “mobile projection”, on the walls of a city or neighborhood. Exploiting this still-new technology for moments of encounter between artworks, places and people.

These screenings provide audiences with an exceptional experience, rediscovering the magic of projection and giving everyday places a totally unexpected dimension. These itinerant screenings are very playful propositions, offering spectators beautiful, original and creative cinema experiences.

This proposal can be approached in the form of a workshop: a group of spectators builds the screening and runs it. They prepare a program of films, designed to be screened on the walls of their neighborhood, at night, in public. The choice of films or excerpts, then the choice of locations to show these films, the speeches, the meaning of this meeting, the way the neighborhood was invested, the way the screening was prepared in collaboration with the residents, the rehearsal time, notably technical, reinforce everyone’s involvement.

Travelling screenings took place at: Festival Via Pro Mons, Festival d’Avignon, École Normale Supérieure, Festival des scénaristes, Agglomération d’Évry, Maison des métallos, Festival Travelling Rennes, Passeurs d’images Île-de-France, Musée de l’Homme, ALCA Bordeaux, Festival War on Screen, Les Lilas, Saint-Denis, Fontenay-sous-Bois, Mitry-Mory, Saint-Michel sur Orge, Ivry-sur-Seine...
