Over the years various theater, film and music professionals have contributed to the festival, including actor and producer Olivier Broche, actor, film director and screenwriter Albert Dupontel, film director and writer Bertrand Blier, French-Afghan writer and filmmaker Atiq Rahimi, English writer-director Mike Leigh, French director, screenwriter, actor and producer Bertrand Tavernier, French composer, saxophonist, and clarinetist Michel Portal, and French film director, screenwriter and producer Jean-Jacques Annaud.
