ABOUT
The DNA of the Sœurs Jumelles Festival
Sœurs Jumelles is more than just a festival—it’s a creative crossroads where composers and filmmakers come together to explore the infinite possibilities of sound and image. Designed as a space for meetings and discoveries, it brings together artists, industry professionals, and enthusiasts.


Manifesto
The eye and the ear,
Music and image,
Twin sisters,
Where does their power come from?
And where does it lead?
All creation is suspended in their resonance,
In their mutual vibrations,
In their parallel waves.
Because we believe that
Their possibilities have never been so infinite,
That their echo knows no bounds,
That from their endless duet, spectacle is born,
And with it, emotion and wonder.
We want to make them vibrate and resonate,
To open one to the other, and the other to the one,
To understand and feel their interactions.
For that, we must give them free rein,
The space and the time to move us.
Sœurs Jumelles
Where Music and Image Meet,
In Rochefort.

A Unique Vision: Music and Image in Harmony
Since its creation in 2021, the Sœurs Jumelles Festival has been the meeting point where music and image intertwine, where composers and filmmakers weave sensory narratives together. Designed on a human scale, open to both the general public and industry professionals, it celebrates the diversity of formats and styles through a bold and dynamic program.
Concerts, screenings, artistic encounters—here, the experience is immersive and multidisciplinary. Cinema, documentaries, animation, video games, virtual reality… Each discipline engages in dialogue with music in all its forms: symphonic, electronic, urban, jazz, and contemporary.
In a time of transformation for cultural industries, Sœurs Jumelles is also a hub of ideas for professionals—a space for networking, debate, and the shaping of future collaborations between creators of images and sound.

A Strong Foundation, An Obvious Legacy
Rooted in Rochefort, an iconic city of musical cinema and the birthplace of The Young Girls of Rochefort, the festival naturally follows in the footsteps of the legendary duo Jacques Demy and Michel Legrand. It brings to life the city’s emblematic venues—Corderie Royale, Théâtre de la Coupe d’Or, Alhambra Studio, and Église Saint-Louis—providing an exceptional setting for this artistic celebration.
Join us from June 24 to 29, 2025, for the 5th edition!
