The festival’s commitment
The Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival wishes to contribute to a diverse, inclusive, equal and fair film industry, centered around values of artistic excellence, dynamic film creation, mutual respect, freedom of expression and progress.
In its commitment to promote a safe event free of all forms of violence, the Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival does not tolerate any kind of behavior which threatens the dignity or the physical, mental, and/or emotional integrity of others. The Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival is fully dedicated to adopting necessary measures to respond to all forms of violence.
For its 45th edition, the Clermont-Ferrand Short Film Festival has committed to developing environmentally responsible practices. These engagements require efficiency and structure, and that is why the Festival is a candidate for a level-1 REEVE label as an environmentally and socially committed festival.
For its 46th edition, the festival is applying for the second level of the label, and is committed to implementing 58 operational eco-responsibility actions.
It also uses the Green Charter for Film Festivals and the 50/50 Collective’s Charter for Gender-Equality and Diversity in Film, Audiovisual, and Motion Picture Festivals.
