The Festival du Film Court Francophone de Vaulx-en-Velin (Vaulx-en-Velin Francophone Short Film Festival) was born in 2001 with the objective of raising awareness among the Vaulx-en-velin audience about moving pictures, to stimulate debate around films from the Francophone space. Called [A fist is short] since 2012, the Vaulx-en-Velin Francophone Short Film Festival wants to be committed and impactful. Anchored on the city of Vaulx-en-Velin (Métropole de Lyon), it has become an unmissable event.
The 24th edition takes place from 19 to 27 January 2024. The competition of the 4 programs takes place on Saturday 20 and Sunday 21 January, with filmmakers and guests in attendance. The poster for the 24th edition was made from a work by Albanian photographer Roland Tasho. The photo was taken at the Gjirokastër National Folk Festival (in southern Albania, hometown of Albanian writer Ismail Kadaré).
