Since 2021, the REIMS POLAR festival has selected the best of contemporary international crime cinema, while programming some films from cinematic heritage. In addition to this rich program, freely accessible cinema lessons allow the public to discover some manufacturing secrets, told by artists.
A festival aims to convey to the public a taste for another cinema, less defined than that of platforms or big productions. Aiming to “create the gaze” of young film buffs, REIMS POLAR forms partnerships with high schools, colleges, universities and associations in the Reims region. The actions are diverse with a single goal: to share our love of cinema.
