The CMCA, through PriMed films, wants to continue showing, seeing and making people think about the Mediterranean world. Once again, we need the works of the directors who participated in PriMed. Their perspective on this part of the world is precious, and their insight is essential …
The films which competed for the Mediterranean Young’s People Award seem to us to be the most likely to reach a young and old audience.
We must take advantage of this time in parentheses to bring together all the generations. This is why we are offering you a special program from April 26 to May 2. We hope you enjoy it and get you through this difficult time. While waiting for the days when we will all meet in the rooms to have the pleasure of sharing moments together.

What was once the Island of Calm is now on the verge of collapse due to mass tourism.
Multiple alarm bells are starting to ring. Is this model of tourism sustainable?
Could Mallorca transform itself and become a reference for so many other places?

He obtained a diploma in 3D animation.
He has more than ten years of experience in the audiovisual field. He has worked in advertising, film and corporate communications projects, as well as directing video clips and video art films.

Seven 6th form students from the Paris district of Porte de La Chapelle are preparing an adaptation of Aeschylus’ tragedy “The Suppliants”. A 2,500-year-old work whose main themes are migration, the place of women and democracy. A film echoing current issues about migration and integration seen by a group of self-assured, happy, uninhibited teenagers.
Dominique Fischbach grew up in Morocco. She has written and directed some thirty films in direct cinema, personal documentaries for France Télévisions, Arte and RTBF in the well-known collection “Strip-Tease”. Generous and sensitive in her ways of seeing, she explores the major themes of society such as multi-culturalism, women’s emancipation and commitment. Among her best-received films, “Liberté Lili”, the difficult struggle of a woman from Guadeloupe to improve the area she lives in, “L’Avenir en Sursis” showing young delinquents confronted by adults’ justice, and “La Classe de Mer” about the delicate journey from childhood to adolescence.
