Nouveaux NOMS, nouveaux GENRES, nouvelles TENDANCES CINEMA sur grand écran au milieu de la Sibérie !
International Kansk Video Festival (Russie/Sibérie) n'est pas un festival de cinéma classique. C'est une expérience dans le temps et l'espace. La petite ville sibérienne de Kansk, a été trouvée sur Internet par hasard et sélectionnée comme son nom correspond au Festival de Cannes, Kansk en langue russe est prononcé de la même manière que Cannes.
*************
Depuis 2002, dans les profondeurs de la Sibérie, le festival se déroule chaque année. Loin de la Côte d'Azur au climat violent de la Taïga, à 7000 km de Londres, à 4500 km de Moscou et à 300 km de Krasnoïarsk par la route des fers, et le chemin de fer transsibérien. Dans une zone pleine de merveilleux et courageux peuple sibérien, pelmeni, noix de cèdre, même les bus qui rappellent les vieux autobus scolaires d'un soviétique perdu depuis longtemps un endroit pleine magie.
Le festival Kansk Video a connu une croissance incommensurable depuis ses débuts en 2002. Chaque année, il accueille un jury international de l'industrie et des milieux artistiques, organise des concours internationaux de films et d'art vidéo avec un programme de projections spéciales et une banque d'idées pour 150 ans de plus des festivals. avenir. Le festival promeut de nouveaux noms de cinéastes indépendants et sans compromis, de nouveaux genres, de nouvelles tendances cinématographiques.
Au cours des dernières décennies, et à une époque marquée par l'émergence de nouvelles technologies qui ont fini par scanner la plupart des processus du film, le documentaire a connu un essor notoire et systématique dans le monde entier. Dans notre pays, et depuis plus d'une décennie, une production auparavant liée presque exclusivement à la fiction vient grossir les rangs avec de nouveaux sujets, de nouvelles approches, de nouvelles géographies, de nouveaux dilemmes.
C'est dans ce contexte que la FIDBA est proposée comme 1ère. Festival international du film dédié à ce genre qui permet aux films ayant les mêmes fans de rencontrer et de dialoguer entre eux et avec le public, tant que nous pensons que les formes et le fonctionnement du film documentaire sont différents de ceux de la fiction. Si le documentaire est un point de rencontre pour la FIDBA, c'est dans la mesure où il propose une interpellation aux mémoires méconnues, au présent inquiétant et à (notre) futur en suspens. La FIDBA sera alors une approche non seulement destinée au public, aux cinéastes et aux penseurs liés au documentaire, mais aussi aux possibilités toujours stimulantes qui permettent d'ouvrir cet espace à d'autres expressions frontalières et hétérodoxes encadrées dans ce que nous appellerions la « non-fiction » et qui nous encouragent à dialoguer avec des expressions contemporaines qui dépassent même le cadre du film.
La FIDBA accordera une attention particulière aux cinéastes pour qui le cinéma est lié à une forme de recherche et de connaissance du monde qui nous entoure, ainsi qu'au portrait d'êtres humains dont les conditions de vie, dans certains contextes historiques et sociaux, vous permettent de nous interroger sur les nôtres. Ce sont donc les auteurs qui reflètent non seulement la réalité, mais également la relation éthique et morale qui implique de filmer l'autre.
La FIDBA a pour objectif de devenir un point de soutien pour les cinéastes qui cherchent à élargir leur perception de la réalité et pour les films qui constituent un pas en avant dans leurs efforts pour la comprendre et l'anticiper. Il mettra donc l'accent sur des films dont l'originalité esthétique met en péril non seulement une idée du documentaire, mais également une réflexion sur le même film et ses possibilités. Puisque cette focalisation implique de questionner le statut de la face avant réelle de la caméra ou du film par rapport à la réalité, cela est tout aussi indissociable des médiations qui en découlent.

Lumière 2015 signs a crucial step forward; the previous edition hosted 100 feature films and 200 shorts from 60 different Countries.
Each tool of the festival is at disposal for the discover and the exploration of new styles and talents, assisting and supporting the independent productions setting a European platform for their expectations. A look at the past won’t be ignored –bringing to light some unpopular zone of Cinema History – as it belongs to the logic of discovery too.
We have concluded many deals with several partners around Europe. This partnerships are planned to decentralize the event with the aim to promote young talents inside a European web allowing audiovisual works to get a broader circulation around EU.
This European direction led us choosing the platypus as logo for our festival. It unites different parts from different animals and this feature makes it unique. It has a duckbill, the tail as rodents, the paws as reptiles and it lays eggs notwithstanding it is a mammal animal. Its skills let it free form categorization and guardian of a precious metaphor: united in diversity.
