Following on from Paris in November and preceding Berlin in July, the 18th Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin/Madrid, now in its third year in Madrid, will once again create a space for discovery and thought between new cinema and contemporary art at several prestigious locations of Madrid's art scene: the Reina Sofia National Museum, the auditorium at the Ministry of Culture, the CA2M Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo, the Spanish Cinematheque, and the Tabacalera – future National Centre for Visual Arts.

Singular in Europe due to the triangle formed between three of Europe's main capitals, the Rencontres Internationales Paris/Berlin/Madrid offer a rare insight into the numerous existing contemporary audio-visual practices. Cutting-edge cinema and documentaries, video art, multimedia installations, the Rencontres Internationales' programme is the result of an extensive research process (from around 6500 submissions) inviting certain artists, key figures in the world of cinema and contemporary art. In the presence of 150 artists and directors from all over the world, this year's festival offers an unprecedented international programme of 200 works from Spain, France, Germany, and 60 other countries, and brings together internationally-recognised artists and directors alongside young artists and directors presented in Madrid for the first time. Highlights include various film premières (over 30 screenings), an exhibition, and a series of round-table debates.
