About this event
Silhouette returns for its 25th edition on the terraced lawns of the Butte-du-Chapeau-Rouge, pairing an international short film competition with live concerts before each screening. Nine evenings of programming carry through from late August into early September, entirely outdoors and entirely free, in one of the quieter parks of north-east Paris.
Why we picked it
A quarter-century old, genuinely free, and one of the few Paris festivals bridging the late-August to early-September gap.
Free entry
The organisers describe it as "le plus grand festival du court métrage en plein air gratuit de Paris" — free entry, no ticket required.
