Our association brings together professional documentary
filmmakers who want to promote access to audiovisual creation
for all audiences.
Audiovisual creation is seen as a means of reflection and
expression, whether behind or in front of the camera.
The themes we focus on reflect the values upheld by the
association: human rights, democracy, freedom and equal
rights, public health and the environment, dissemination of
scientific knowledge, etc.
The importance of transmission leads us to engage in image
education initiatives, in close collaboration with teaching
professionals.
The association also has an affinity for participatory and
collaborative projects, where the expertise of the professional
director should not prevent the co-construction of projects.
Example of a project Mandarine collaborated on: Erasmus+
project “Young Europeans Making History,” involving young
people from five European countries (France, Germany, Italy,
Lithuania, Spain) in cultural creations, including a 77-minute
documentary film directed by a professional in collaboration
with the young people, who are both in front of and behind the
camera.
