REOPENING OF LIGHT CONE'S OFFICE

Light Cone's office reopens on July 1st! Reception hours during the summer will be from Monday to Friday, 11am to 5pm, by appointment only.

It will again be possible to watch films and consult the paper archive at our Documentation Center. For appointments, please contact us at documentation@lightcone.org.

You will also be able to pick up and return rented film prints in person. Please confirm the date and time of your visit in advance by writing to printtraffic@lightcone.org.

The office will be closed from August 10 to 14 for the summer holidays.

ONLINE PROGRAMS: SCRATCH DIALOGUES & SCRATCH FOCUS

We really enjoyed sharing films with you during the lockdown and want to continue this activity with a new online program. This is conceived in the form of a dialogue within our collection, with the intention of exploring possible relationships of analogy, filiation or interaction between the films. Every 15 days, you will find a new Scratch Dialogues selection on our website and social media.

We are also launching Scratch Focus, a new online screening series that aims to encourage the exploration of the Light Cone catalogue, a constantly evolving collection that is now composed of about 5500 films. Every month, we invite you to discover on our website the practice of one of the filmmakers in the collection.

Nearly 1600 films from our distribution catalogue are available for streaming, if you just search for them! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter to see some of our suggestions.

Although the celebration of the event's tenth anniversary will come a year late, it will be in the company of emblematic figures of Expanded Cinema, with film performances by the Cellule d'Intervention Metamkine (France), Bruce McClure (USA) and Guy Sherwin (England).
