"Bring Your Own Movie" Festival August
From August 18 to 22, the Pays des Écrins will host “Ramène ta bobine,” an adventure film festival. The program features climbing, horseback riding, mountaineering, paragliding, cycling, and kayaking—with stories as varied as the sports themselves.
Movies and meet-and-greets to experience the adventure from the inside
Many guests will be on hand to present their work: directors, actors, and the protagonists of the stories told on screen. These discussions offer a deeper understanding of what goes on behind the scenes of each film and allow viewers to immerse themselves further in these stories.
