Céline Pain

After graduating in Modern Literature from the University of Caen (France), between 1998 and 2007 he coordinated a short film festival in that city.She then moved into the performing arts, but always kept one foot in the film world. In 2019, she took over the management of Ligue de l’Enseignement, a cultural cluster that runs a network of independent cinemas, the Génériques network. It comprises 2 itinerant circuits with 26 screening points and a network of 16 fixed cinemas, representing 40 cinematic screening points in rural areas and prisons. All theatres in the network have the Art et Essai label. A European film festival project for the ne- twork is in the pipeline, and should see the light of day in 2025.
