Festival Silhouette 2026: Short films shown at the outdoor cinema in Butte du Chapeau Rouge

Now in its 25th year, the association Silhouette invites Parisians to close out the summer on the lawns of the Parc de la Butte du Chapeau Rouge to enjoy local-band concerts, followed by short-film screenings... All of it free!

Once again this year, the Silhouette festival will offer daytime programs of documentaries, music videos and hybrid films, as well as a program for young audiences, in the Parc de la Butte du Chapeau Rouge. And don't miss the Rendez-Vous Cinéma: " a privileged space for exchange between the public and professionals on issues surrounding cinema and short films".
