Josephine Japy, director and actress, president of the jury

For this 5th edition , the jury will be chaired by actress and director Joséphine Japy, whose first film Qui brille au combat was supported by the scheme in 2024.

It will be composed of professionals recognized for their commitment to inclusion, and will evaluate projects based on their potential impact and feasibility. They will be accompanied by representatives from Agefiph, Audiens, and Adami.

50 projects supported since the creation of the scheme

Since the launch of this call for projects in 2002, 50 initiatives have been supported with €1,165,000, and more than 90 projects have been submitted.

These include creative projects (feature films, documentaries, short films, and series), training programs, festivals, networking platforms, and the development of accessible tools and resources aimed at improving working conditions and promoting access to employment for people with disabilities in the film and audiovisual sectors.

Here are some examples of projects supported during the last 4 editions:

  • Series Toulouse Lautrec by Fanny Riedberger (produced by Fédération Studios for TF1) for which the production wanted to cast teenagers with real disabilities in main roles and extras, requiring a specific and innovative system to integrate these actors into the series and the working collective.
  • the Tremplin scheme, run by Séquences Clés production, which works to support people with disabilities towards employment in the film and audiovisual sectors.
  • The accessibility training program for cinema trainers, run by Ciné Sens, brings together people with sensory disabilities and film professionals. The program aims to provide tools for effectively addressing accessibility issues and to increase the capacity for intervention on this topic.
  • the short movie Diego by Melissa Silveira (produced by TopShot Films) who hired an actor with a disability to play the lead role.
  • Snowdrop Live! A cinema (5 screens) and cultural center project will aim to create jobs and improve employability for people with intellectual and/or mental disabilities. Led by the Perce-Neige Foundation, in cooperation with a group of entrepreneurs within the Culture and Disability Foundation, Perce Neige Live! plans to hire approximately 70 people with disabilities and aims to attract nearly 300.000 visitors per year.
