Paris/Berlin International Meetings is an interdisciplinary event, favouri=
zing contemporary 
creation in different fields: movie, video, multimedia and sound creation.=
 This festival 
proposes to 
diffuse in Paris and Berlin an international programming for a large publi=
c, and to dynamize 
exchanges between artists, filmmakers, professionals and cultural particip=
ants. It is now 
the 
first interdisciplinary event in Paris and Berlin.

The next festival will take place in Paris in Autumn 2002, and in 
Berlin in Spring 2003. In 2001, the Paris/Berlin International 
Meetings was supported by the french ministry for culture, the 
Regional Council of Ile-de-France, the city of Paris, the Goethe 
institut, the cultural TV channel Arte, the Unesco. This non-
commercial event is organised by roARatorio, a non-profit 
organisation within artistic and cultural aim, whose Paris and 
Berlin staff guarantee functioning and co-ordination.

We want to break down the barriers between the different artistic 
fields, as well as between their audience. We have created an 
open event which will bring out both the idiosyncrasies and the 
similarities between the different fields, creating an enhanced 
artistic experience and encouraging a real experience and 
encouraging a dialogue between the public, artists, producers 
and people involved in artistic and cultural life. We believe that 
works from several different fields, presented at the same  
festival, will have a huge creative potential, from the point of view 
of different types of audience meeting up, and of the artistic 
works themselves.

The last Meetings have taken place in Berlin in June 2001. The 
programming have presented more than 400 films and videos 
from 50 countries, fictions, documentaries, experimental 
movies, video art, on 35mm, 16mm, super 8 and video formats ; 
several cartes blanches : to Dani=E8le Huillet and Jean-Marie 
Straub, to Jean Rouch ; an audiovisual retrospective to Wolf 
Vostell's work ; 30 performances, interventions, concerts ; 20 
installations, sound, video or multimedia installations ; debates.

thank you for your attention, and look forward to hearing from 
you. Best regards,

For the Meetings' staff
