It is said that Paris never speaks with just one voice. It whispers from the dimly lit cafés of Saint-Germain, sings from the rooftops of Montmartre, and debates passionately in the back alleys of the Latin Quarter. The city breathes in a thousand tongues, its stories weaving through time - unruly, poetic, and deeply cinematic.
The Les Voix de Paris festival was born from this symphony of voices, from the belief that cinema, like Paris itself, is never just one thing. It is not only French, nor only global. It is not only traditional, nor purely avant-garde. It is a crossroads, a conversation, a living, evolving art form that refuses to be confined to a single perspective.
Our mission is not to define cinema but to let it redefine itself. To gather films that do not fit within rigid categories, voices that do not seek approval but demand to be heard. Les Voix de Paris is a space for contradiction, for dialogue, for stories that collide, overlap, and echo through the streets long after the screen fades to black.
At the conclusion of the 2025 festival season, a winner and an Honorable Mention will be selected in each of the designated categories. The winners will be awarded both a prestigious trophy and a set of laurels, along with an official diploma, which will be sent to their provided mailing address.
Those who receive the Honorable Mention distinction will be granted a secret prize during the festival ceremony. In addition, their works will be showcased to the audience as part of the event’s program.
This recognition celebrates the exceptional creativity and excellence of the filmmakers, with all selected works being acknowledged for their artistic achievements.
