The Association du cinéma indépendant pour sa diffusion (ACID; transl. Association for the Diffusion of Independent Cinema) is an association of film directors with the goal of promoting the theatrical distribution of independent films and encouraging debates between filmmakers and audiences. It was founded in 1992.

Since 1993, ACID has presented a selection of nine feature films, fiction or documentary, for screening at the annual Cannes Film Festival. It is a parallel section of the festival, such as Directors' Fortnight and Critics' Week, focusing on films without French distributors and first features. It has been named one of the Top 100 Essential Film Festivals.
