ALLIANCE FRANÇAISE DE MELBOURNE IS PROUD TO PRESENT THE 2010 FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL!

FOR ITS 21ST YEAR, THE FILM SELECTION IS BOTH ENTICING AND DIVERSE

With the aim to promote French culture and enable audiences to discover the variety within French cinema, the festival, since its creation, offers an eclectic range of quality films released during the previous months. The French Film Festival appeals to every spectator's tastes, from the romantic to the thriller or comedy lover. 43 films will be screened this year, from French blockbusters to independent productions by celebrated or budding directors.

Like every year, the Festival offers a few special events. Jean- Pierre Jeunet will present his long-awaited recent release Micmacs followed by the Opening Night Gala. The Closing Night will be not outdone, paying tribute to the genius French musician and provocateur Serge Gainsbourg with the projection of Joann Sfar’s film: Gainsbourg: Je t'aime... Moi non plus.

Moreover, the Festival invites you to two special screening evenings. During two of which the outrageous comedies OSS 117, Lost in Rio and Incognito will be presented. Two evenings will feature the film Welcome followed by a Q&A session with its director, the talented Philippe Lioret. Another important aspect of the Festival is to emphasise its educational and cultural mission through school screenings and roundtables.

Francophiles, cinema lovers, inquiring minds, let's celebrate the French cinema !
