Every October, the Everybody’s Perfect festival unites the arts and cultural exchange to celebrate the expressions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and queer people worldwide.
Through film, the festival aims to raise awareness of LGBTQ+ issues, offer diverse perspectives on the world, promote creativity, and foster meaningful dialogue. Open to all, it makes a significant contribution to the evolution of society and attitudes.
Presented by Allianz Cinéma, this summer’s open-air program stages cinematic evenings along the water. The selection favors intimate, atmospheric films—framed in long takes and textured nightlight—that unfold against the hush of waves and skyline. A gentle curation blends contemporary and classic titles, where communal viewing meets suspended terraces, a pop-up restaurant and relaxed lounges. The emphasis is on mood: tactile frames, warm night palettes and the social rhythms of shared attention, inviting contemplative and convivial cinema.
Spanning a century of cinema, this retrospective traces the evolving face of stardom from silent-era pioneers to contemporary icons. Through nine thematic chapters and a curated selection of one hundred films, it examines the star system, shifting modernities, emerging representations of desire and identity, and the rise of anti-heroes. Shot and assembled for a keen focus on the human visage, the program foregrounds cinematic techniques that reinvent how films capture presence and persona.

An evocative season of art films celebrating painters and visual storytelling. Each screening explores an artist’s life and practice through richly textured documentary and archival cinema, from intimate portraits of Cézanne and Van Gogh to sweeping surveys of Matisse, Monet and Klimt. Expect contemplative pacing, luminous cinematography and close study of process and perception. The programme gathers landmark art documentaries that probe creativity, representation and the emotional power of painting.
An open-air film series presenting six evening screenings that travel from silent-era comedy to contemporary French cinema. The programme spans Charlie Chaplin’s iconic comedy through recent work by Nakache and Toledano, offering films suited to a range of ages and tastes. Screenings privilege communal, sensory viewing: luminous images, live laughter, and intimate stories on a summer night. The selection moves between humour and emotion, inviting light-hearted delight and quiet reflection.
Arthur Harari’s intimate drama follows David Zimmerman, a reclusive photographer whose life is unsettled when he fixates on a stranger at a party and wakes up in her body. Harari deploys restrained framing, naturalistic performances and a cool, precise visual palette to explore identity, desire and the disquiet of inhabiting another self. Tautly paced and atmospheric, the film balances psychological tension with moments of quiet humanity, inviting reflection rather than giving easy answers.
In French. In the presence of director Arthur Harari.
