For the first edition of PRISME, Mire would like to share its knowledge of an analog filmmaking made around the world which, more than a simple activity, is a real exploration process.  Claiming ways of seeing, doing and thinking above all, PRISME lets cinema freeze or expand, presents pionniering practices and discusses about the future, opens to photography, visual, performative, sound arts.

In the wake of Bains Argentiques, international artist-run filmlabs meeting that Mire organized in 2016, PRISME aims at celebrating current analog film practices and dynamics as well as promoting the networks that are committed to its development, artistic experimentation in general, and do-it-yourself philosophy.
