The festival in Paris actually presents around 300 films coming from around 50 countries at different places in Paris. In Berlin the festival will be performed in the legendary cinema Babylon.
The International Festival SIGNES DE NUIT based in Paris is made up of films, which reflects new views, original imagery and critical approach to the crucial points of the modern human existence. It is a place for cinema that expands its own boundaries, that is astonishing, different, potentially free from the pressure of tradition, ready to give itself to the unpredictable experimentation.
The minor costs of digital production makes an independant- from comercial influences and any kind of censorship- production possible. These independant productions create an alternative, an artistic space very subtle and accessible to all, in contrast to what mass media offer.
This opposition and the preservation of the free cultural space is the goal of the International Festival Signes de Nuit, which has realized screenings and interventions in 29 different countries including Algeria, Australia, Chile, Cuba, Lebanon, Lithuania, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Peru, Russia, Tunisia, Turkey and the United States beside the screenings in main festival in Paris.

The Land of All Film Festival was born in 2007 from the need to give the word to many documentarians who use video as a form of critical expression, as a torch on the world and on the problems that affect the many southern parts of the world in each country. Promoted by the Non-Governmental Organizations of International Cooperation for Development WeWorld GVC Onlus and COSPE Onlus, the TTFF brings to Bologna documentaries and social cinema from the south of the world, with the aim of giving visibility to the reality of those countries, peoples and social struggles that are "invisible" in the mass media.
Participants in the festival are the audiovisual works of medium and short films whose narrative cut is centered on the struggle for equality of rights, gender, defense of freedom, active citizenship, environmental and ecological awareness.
The Land of All Film Festival wants to offer visions of the south without rhetoric, censorship or pietism, but with the idea that only a lucid, reactive and never resigned glance of the realities that surround us can lead to change the present and invent futures. Even through cinema.
