Hosted in Loguivy-de-la-Mer, it intends first and foremost to share a new view of the region through the lens and sensitivity of a photographer invited from afar to discover the region and its people in an artistic residency.

In the centre of the festival, the guest photographer’s new series will be displayed around the port of Loguivy. The images, printed on canvas and displayed like flags, will be able to move freely with the wind.
The festival will take place on the quays of the port of Loguivy-de-la-mer, in the department of Côtes-d’Armor in Brittany.
The main events will take place during the opening weekend from July 25th to 28th.
The photographs will remain on display until September 30th!
