During the event, 15 short films were screened, helping the audience discover many unique aspects of the convergence between the Vietnamese culture and others worldwide.

The audience also had a chance to interact with directors and filmmakers and share their feelings about films.

At an exchange on October 24 afternoon, they watched several films for free and met young directors joining the festival.

Held for the first time in 2018 under the initiative of the Association of Vietnamese in France, the event aimed to uphold the creativity of young OVs in a wide range of areas, from movie, music, contemporary arts to literature, football and cuisine.
