LES FAUVES
Committed to shaking up the cinematic landscape of the Grand Duchy, LES FILMS FAUVES brings forth new Luxembourgish talents, firmly rooted in their cultural identity and language, yet capable of transcending local boundaries.

We believe that by insisting on the specificity of their reality, their vision becomes universal.

With our experience in co-production and our drive to escape comfort zones, we support and champion the emergence of international auteurs, such as Payal Kapadia's "ALL WE IMAGINE AS LIGHT" (Grand Prix, Festival de Cannes 2024, 2 Golden Globe nominations) and Zoe Wittock’s "JUMBO". We also defend strong and established voices from diverse backgrounds, including Lisandro Alonso, Wang Bing, Rodrigo Moreno, Bertrand Mandico, and Hélène Cattet & Bruno Forzani. We aspire to remain free from restrictive editorial lines, operating instead within the intersections of author and genre film, fiction and documentary. We encourage narrative risk-taking—whether lyrical, poetic, strange, or fantastic—as well as formal daring, always mindful that "form is the bottom which rises to the surface."

Expanding our horizons into the XR industry, we are excited to be part of several projects, such as "ITO MEIKYU," directed by Boris Labbé (Venice Immersive Prize 2024). These Author's Film Experiences reflect our commitment to exploring auteur cinema within this new reality. As with our traditional films, we aim to bring an author's unique vision to the forefront, pushing the boundaries of narrative and form in the immersive world of XR.

The authors we support, rather than imposing a discourse, lend their ear to the world and then set out to transform it, offering a fresh, strong, sincere, and offbeat perspective on the world.
