Founded in 2007, PORTEURS D’IMAGES is a nonprofitmaking association which aims to develop and promote the Mauritian film industry. The association brings together Mauritian film professionals: directors, producers, technicians, actors, scriptwriters,

The association organises an annual major event, the International Short Films Festival of Mauritius – Île Courts.
