From Pulp Fiction to Forever Young, the programme of the Saliège students is enough to make anyone green with envy!

From ‘Pulp Fiction’ to ‘Forever Young’, to the Tim Burton All-Nighter, the schedule of the students of Saliège could make anyone jealous. During their visit to the festival, the Toulouse students from the ‘Ciné-prépa’ (elite cinema class) and their professors Michèle Dupin and Gaël Réthoré did not hide their enjoyment upon returning to the Lumière Film Festival for the second year in a row. Among the 29 chosen ones, Kelhan, 18 years old, future director/chief operator exclaimed, "I love the atmosphere of this festival! It was the first time I ever saw ‘Pulp Fiction’ on the big screen. I loved it and the film was really a breath of fresh air, for its time!”

Cécile, 19, and Salomé, 18, are celebrating their second participation in the festival: "I really liked the film ‘Forever Young’, the presentation given by the film crew was very interesting; it was an opportunity to discover the behind the scenes of the shooting", remarked Salomé, future production manager. In a few months, the two young women from Toulouse will register for the entrance exam to the prestigious Fémis film school, Cécile in the editing department and Salomé in production. But before taking on the competitions, the students will participate in the Tim Burton All-Nighter, planned for this Saturday at the Halle Tony-Garnier. A perfect way to brush up on the classics!
