Regards Singuliers
Festival de films documentaires
Edition n°3 - 2027
From 23 to 25 April 2027
Selection announcement date 15 March 2027
Bény, FRANCE
Regards Singuliers is a documentary film festival showcasing auteur filmmakers, committed and demanding, that questions our social, political, and environmental realities. Three days at the Atelier du Préambule to meet, be moved, and share unique visions of the world. Located at the Atelier du Préambule, a creative space run by the Au Long Court company, the festival is part of a dynamic rooted in the local community. Conceived as a space for research and experimentation, this hybrid venue fosters dialogue between artists and audiences, works and experiences.
Spearheaded by the Au Long Court association, the Regards Singuliers festival was born from a desire to turn documentary cinema into a space for dialogue, reflection, and sharing. Held at the Atelier du Préambule—the association’s creative hub—the festival brings together audiences, filmmakers, producers, artists, and local residents to engage with works that shed light on contemporary social, political, environmental, and human realities.
As part of the festival, a non-competitive selection—"Petits formats"—is dedicated to recent creative documentary films that have not yet been released.
