Le Festival
Biarritz Film Festival – NOUVELLES VAGUES is a distinctive festival committed to championing and showcasing the perspectives and voices of new generations.
The Festival is built around two defining principles: an international feature film competition dedicated exclusively to stories of youth, and juries whose members are all under the age of 35.
Over six days, Biarritz Film Festival – NOUVELLES VAGUES presents international feature and short film competitions, showcasing films yet to be released in French cinemas and shining a light on young people, their stories, hopes and power.
Alongside the official competitions, the Festival screens more than thirty films, including an open-air screening open to everyone.
Biarritz Film Festival – NOUVELLES VAGUES was born from a strong belief: that cinema is renewed first and foremost by young people — through their stories, perspectives, doubts and anger, but also through their energy and aspirations.
The Festival is therefore dedicated to stories of youth, understood not simply as an age, but as a pivotal moment — a time of change, self-discovery and looking towards the future. Through this distinctive editorial vision, NOUVELLES VAGUES deliberately carves out a unique place for itself on the film festival landscape.
