Free of formal constraints and constantly evolving, experimental cinema can be difficult to define. From the history of the genre to current practices, this theoretical and analytical workshop presents an in-depth portrait of the creative trends in experimental cinema. The different methods and approaches used in the creation of an exploratory work will be examined. A selection of films and videos by emerging and established artists will be presented.
