A man wakes up in a blue room. He's stuck and he can't escape. A window is his only connection to the outer world. It filters the reality in a very mysterious way... "A Blue Room" is a Polish-French coproduction produced by Se-Ma-For and Sacrebleu Productions. 

The fourth edition of the Ciné Poème was held between 21-23 March. Festival was held in frames of the Printemps  des Poètes (Poets' Spring) that took place for the 17th time.
