Visions du Réel, Nyon’s International Documentary Film Festival has unveiled the poster for its next edition, will be held from 5 -13 April 2019.
It has also announced that it will pay tribute to Werner Herzog, one of the world’s major filmmakers during the festival’s 50th edition. The filmmaker will be in Nyon and will be awarded the Sesterce d’Or Prix Raiffeisen Maître du Réel.
In partnership with the Cinémathèque Suisse and ECAL, several events are being organised to give the audience the opportunity to meet the legendary film director: a Masterclass on 9 April and screenings of a selection of films as well as his latest feature-length film, Meeting Gorbachev (co-directed with André Singer), as a Swiss premiere.
