A series of thought-provoking documentaries
Through a series of big-screen documentaries, Le Monde en doc seeks to encourage debate and give tangible cinematographic expression to the abstractness of a global world. Le Monde en doc prioritises thought-provoking documentaries that have never been released or are rarely screened in Luxembourg.

Je 30 |10 à 19h00 : The Librarians
USA 2025 | Kim A. Snyder | documentaire | vostFR | 88’
► Sundance Film Festival 2025 ; South by Southwest 2025
Alors qu’une vague sans précédent d’interdiction de livres se déclenche au Texas, en Floride et au-delà, les bibliothécaires assiégés unissent leurs forces en tant que défenseurs improbables luttant pour la liberté intellectuelle en première ligne de la démocratie.
« Snyder’s illuminating documentary offers a rattling look at coordinated efforts to ban books. More importantly, it introduces viewers to the everyday and increasingly vital heroes pushing back: the librarians who sound the alarm to both legislative and grassroots attempts to pull books from school and public libraries. » (Variety)
« Seamlessly assembling a wide variety of material, including vintage film snip - pets mixed in with the archival and original footage, The Librarians observes a clutch of educators, almost all women, fighting on the culture-war frontlines. Their opponents are legion: conservative school boards, members of the recently scandal-ridden right-wing organization Moms for Liberty and publicity-hungry Republican politicians, among others. » (The Hollywood Reporter)
En collaboration avec l’ONG luxembourgeoise ASTM et la bibliothèque du CITIM, la Bibliothèque Nationale de Luxembourg, le CID Fraen en Gender, la Lëtzebuerg City Bibliothèque et oekobib
