Twenty films, twelve municipalities, two local directors: Documentary Film Month weaves its web in media libraries

It’s Documentary Film Month in Grand Cahors, in the Lot. From November 4 to 29, its network of libraries and media libraries offers twenty free screenings in Cahors, Pradines, Cabrerets, Trespoux-Rassiels, Douelle, Fontanes, Mercuès, Saint-Médard, Espère, Labastide-Marnhac, Lherm and Le Montat.

Meetings

From the mountains of Macedonia to Louisiana, from the countryside of the Massif Central to the landscapes of Lot, the 2025 program explores the richness of the world and the diversity of its inhabitants.

Each session is free and followed by a meeting: two directors from Lot, local actors, artists or associations will come and interact with the public. Some sessions are part of national festivals and highlights: Alimenterre, the Solidarity Festival, Migrant’scène, the Awareness Day against sexist and sexual violence.
