Organised by the association Mission Planète Terre, the Festival International du Film sur les Glaciers uses cinema to raise awareness about the melting of glaciers and the urgency of climate action. Through film screenings, discussions with directors, exhibitions, and school activities, the festival invites audiences to explore the environmental, social, and scientific dimensions of glacier retreat and its impact on our planet, highlighting the need for sustainable change.
