During its festival, Lisula CineMusica offers convivial and festive encounters around cinema and music: musicals, documentaries, biopics, animated films and ciné-concerts. Discoveries and emotions for all audiences.
8 Days of Film and Music.

The festival explores the richness and diversity of cinematic and musical forms, and in just a few years has established itself as one of the few events in France entirely dedicated to musical films.
