The 9th edition of the Pour Faire Court festival is ready to give you chills in April 2026!
"Let's shiver! to the rythm of emotions"
This year, Pour Faire Court invites you to dive into the heart of the shiver — those intense, universal emotions that move through our bodies and minds.
Whether they arise from love, fear, joy, embarrassment, or even the cold, shivers always reveal a sincere, raw, and deeply human reaction.
Through this theme, we offer filmmakers the freedom to express their imagination. Each short film becomes a unique interpretation of the shiver: tender, frightening, euphoric, or unsettling.
The goal is to make the audience feel, vibrate, and be moved — no matter which emotion is sparked.
This theme perfectly embodies the spirit of the festival: a blend of boldness, creativity, and sensitivity, brought to life by students eager to share their vision of the world.
Who are we ?
The short film festival Pour Faire Court was born from a shared passion of students from Lyon who wanted to create their own cinematographic event.
Pour Faire Court is a name carefully chosen to evoke a feeling of surprise, a raw and unexpected experience.
Our festival rewards short film works of all levels. Whether you are an amateur or a professional, do not hesitate to participate and send us your short films.
