French Cultural Center

For this month’s ciné-club we chose to discuss a love story. Filippo Meneghetti’s first movie, Two of Us, is an incredible exploration of what it means to love and be loved in return.

For this month’s ciné-club we will be discussing Run, a 2014 French-Ivorian drama film directed by Philippe Lacôte. The film follows the fictionalized account of the 2011 post-election upheaval in the Ivory Coast that killed 3,000 people.

For this month’s ciné-club we will be discussing 24 jours, a drama based on a true story. The film is a chilling depiction of the real-life events surrounding the attack, and presents a commentary on growing anti-Semitism in France.

For le Mois de la francophonie we are working on a partnership with La Déléguation du Québec to offer you the unique opportunity to watch a movie which will be available only for you! Join Barbara for an online discussion after you watch - at your leisure - A tous ceux qui ne me lisent pas.

We are guessing that you have heard of the French newest hot series Lupin. If you haven’t yet watched it yet, we invite you to do so - or at least start! -  before our next ciné-club.

For our first ciné-club online discussion of the year we will dive into the demanding world of ballerinas with Girl. Follow the impressive journey of Lara, a 15-year-old girl who was born in a boy's body, and is committed to becoming a professional ballerina. Becoming a ballerina requires determination, blood, sweat and tears but for Lara, it is a passion she is not willing to give up on no matter what it takes.
