At the end of four tailored sessions unfurling across nine months under the aegis of Groupe Ouest - which has been the first choice in Europe for film and fiction writing residencies for some years now - the projects forming part of the 2024 Annual Selection (read our news) have undergone an evolution, and this creative progress can be seen in the recently published Booklet (available for download in French here).

For the record, these projects are Commune by Zeno Graton, Bébé d’or by Angela Ottobah, Brume by Alexander Abaturov, À part faire des grillades, il ne se passait rien by Violette Garcia, À bord, la vie by Coralie Lavergne, La fille des bois by Xavier Demoulin, Torem by Julien Meynet and Life Is Good by François Vacarisas.

Groupe Ouest will also see some of its selected projects from previous residencies swinging into action this year, with La Tour de Glace [+lee también:
