Since 2003 the international Festival SIGNES DE NUIT is active in Paris, Berlin, Saarbrücken and with special screenings world wide. The festival in Paris actually presents around 300 films coming from around 50 countries at different places in Paris. In Berlin the festival will be performed in the legendary cinema Babylon.
The International Festival SIGNES DE NUIT based in Paris is made up of films, which reflects new views, original imagery and critical approach to the crucial points of the modern human existence. It is a place for cinema that expands its own boundaries, that is astonishing, different, potentially free from the pressure of tradition, ready to give itself to the unpredictable experimentation.
The minor costs of digital production makes an independant- from comercial influences and any kind of censorship- production possible. These independant productions create an alternative, an artistic space very subtle and accessible to all, in contrast to what mass media offer.
This opposition and the preservation of the free cultural space is the goal of the International Festival Signes de Nuit, which has realized screenings and interventions in 29 different countries including Algeria, Australia, Chile, Cuba, Lebanon, Lithuania, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Peru, Russia, Tunisia, Turkey and the United States beside the screenings in main festival in Paris.

Bienvenue dans le film Radical Frame - Série de courts métrages 2026 - Berlin
Au Radical Frame Film Festival, nous sommes fiers d'annoncer la douzième édition de la série de courts métrages.
L'idée du Radical Frame Film Festival est née il y a des années lorsqu'un groupe d'activistes, d'artistes et d'amis de Denver a décidé de diffuser les messages du cinéma vidéo-activiste auprès du public.
Nous pensons qu'en raison du climat social et politique actuel, à la fois local et mondial, notre mission, qui consiste à fournir un forum pour des films et des débats stimulants, est plus essentielle que jamais.
Nous nous engageons à présenter des films progressistes, gauchistes, radicaux, antiracistes, expérimentaux et visionnaires qui abordent des questions telles que, mais sans s'y limiter, l'environnement, les droits de l'homme, l'injustice sociale, l'antimondialisation, etc.
Le Radical Frame Film Festival présente tous les genres de films indépendants du monde entier lors de cette incroyable célébration bicontinentale des artistes indépendants.
Le Radical Frame Film Festival est un forum où les cinéastes peuvent s'épanouir en dehors de l'arène traditionnelle.
La série de courts métrages met en lumière des courts métrages véritablement indépendants, créés par des cinéastes débutants ou confirmés. L'objectif est de permettre à chacun, quel que soit son pays, de réaliser ses rêves et de commencer à prendre les mesures nécessaires pour vivre sa vie avec passion et détermination.
