8th Sud de sciences film and image festival

Sud de Sciences is a scientific film festival that offers the general public a unique opportunity to see full-length scientific films, followed by discussions with researchers.

The Sud de Sciences festival is part of a very rich and diverse local research scene, reflecting the six thousand researchers in the Montpellier scientific community.

Free of charge, it offers the public an opportunity to view exceptional scientific films on current research topics that respond to the challenges facing society, based on the themes addressed by the I-SITE program of excellence, which federates the region's researchers to meet three major challenges: Nourish, Care, Protect.

The screenings are followed by discussions with scientists specializing in the topics under discussion, and with guest documentary filmmakers.

Initiated by the Faculty of Science, it is supported by the University of Montpellier and organized with the research organizations CIRAD, INRAe, INSERM, IRD, the scientific mediation association Centre de l'Imaginaire Scientifique et Technique (CIST) which coordinates it, and in partnership with the City of Montpellier and the network of media libraries and scientific culture of Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole.
