Moving Mountains Prize

The 'Moving Mountains' programme enables us to reflect on current and future changes in society, through the prism of good ideas to be shared and the actions that can arise from them, using cinema as a tool for reflection, an open window on Europe and the challenges of today and tomorrow.

The 'Moving Mountains' prize has been running since 2019 and aims to highlight a film that helps, in its own way, to move the lines on a social issue, whether it be on the theme of the environment, inclusion or mental health. It's the kind of film that makes you feel a bit different after you've seen it...

In 2024, the winning film is ‘Sauvages’ by Claude Barras. The prize will be presented to its director at a ceremony held on 18 December at the Scène cinema in Bourg-saint-Maurice. The ceremony will be followed by a screening of the film and a discussion on: ‘How can cinema, and animation in particular, enable intergenerational exchange and generate collaboration on major ecological issues?’, with Claude Barras, Salomé Saqué and Jérémie Renier, actor and director, founding member of the CUT (Cinéma uni pour la Transition) group.
