OUR SPONSORS
The Sisley d’Ornano Foundation
The objectives of the Sisley d’Ornano Foundation are to support causes that can make a difference, to accompany them in their development, and to help them become more effective. The Fondation Sisley d’Ornano has been associated with the Lab since its inception.
The creation of the Lab Femmes de cinéma is in fact the fruit of a partnership that developed and expanded over 5 years between the Les Arcs Film Festival and Sisley, on the theme of the place of women, and in particular women directors, in cinema. It was therefore only natural that the Fondation Sisley d’Ornano should become the Lab’s founding sponsor.

STUDIOCANAL has been a partner of the Lab since 2021 and shares our fights on the importance of parity and diversity in the audiovisual sector.

CANNESERIES, Festival International des Séries de Cannes, has been a Lab partner since 2020. This event aims to promote and embody series from all over the world. From the outset, CANNESERIES has had a strong interest in gender issues behind and in front of the camera, both in its programming and in the meetings it organizes.
Since 2020, the Lab has been moderating a masterclass with a female series producer, recording podcasts and producing capsule interviews with inspiring women.
The Sœurs Jumelles festival celebrates the meeting of Music and Image. Every year in Rochefort, image artists (cinema, animation, documentary, advertising film, series, video clip, video game, VR) and music artists (symphonic, electronic, urban, jazz) gather in the same place to exchange, inform and federate around common issues.

OUR PARTNERSHIPS
Collectif 5050 is an association based on several postulates: parity reduces the balance of power, diversity profoundly changes representations, working towards equality and diversity to open up the field of power profoundly encourages the renewal of creation. Structured as an action tank or “do thank”, the Collectif is committed to working together to promote equality and diversity in the film industry.
Since 2018, Le Lab and the Collectif have been organizing collaborative workshops and relaying their respective work.
HORSCHAMP bases all its activities on the notion of encounters. It’s a rich collection, the organization and broadcasting of masterclasses, the proposal of connections between spectators and filmmakers, photographers, contemporary artists, the discovery of emerging creators, the realization of portraits, the need to make today’s creation visible and accessible to all.
The Lab’s masterclasses are organized in partnership with HORSCHAMP.
The association 1000 Visages was founded in 2006 by director Houda Benyamina to democratize cinema for young people aged 16 to 30, who are excluded from it for economic, geographical or social reasons.
Each year, Le Lab organizes a workshop in partnership with 1000 Visages for the association’s young talents.
