Festival de la Normandie et le Monde de l'Art

A unique film festival in Vernon

Created in 2009 under the name "La Normandie et le Monde", the festival has evolved to become La Normandie et le Monde de l'Art, a must-see cinematic event in the Eure department. Organized by the association CinéNum, based in Vernon, this international festival presents short and feature films in and out of competition, screened in the four rooms of the Vernon cinema-theatre, at the Théâtre municipal Marcel Beaufour, and in other locations in the city.

Two complementary themes

The festival is structured around two axes that make it unique. The "Normandy" theme highlights films shot in Normandy or made by Norman filmmakers, thus celebrating the regional cinematic heritage. The "The Art World" theme explores the links between cinema and artistic creation: films about artists, their works, museums, and creative processes, echoing the proximity of Giverny and its Impressionist heritage.

Competitions and awards

Several awards are presented at each edition: best short film "The Art World", best short film "Normandy", audience award, and best screenplay award. A jury of film professionals selects the winning films from the official competition entries, while the public votes for their favorite film.

Strong territorial roots

Located in Vernon, at the gateway to Giverny, the festival benefits from an exceptional cultural environment. The proximity of the Musée des Impressionnismes and the Fondation Claude Monet nourishes the festival's artistic theme, while open-air screenings and meetings with directors create a friendly and accessible atmosphere.
