About

From Wednesday 29 February – Sunday 11th March 2012 a fabulous selection of French films will be gracing Christchurch screens during the Alliance Française French Film Festival.

Proudly sponsored by L'Oréal Paris, the Alliance Française French Film Festival offers a comprehensive national programme over five weeks and nine cities.

The festival is the main French cultural event in New Zealand, and has an appeal that reaches far beyond the local French community.

For the first time in the festival's history, the festival will be managed from the Alliance Française in Wellington and promoted by the large Alliance Française network around New Zealand. The Alliance is a non-profit organization committed to promoting French language and culture worldwide.

Festival highlights this year include Valerie Donzelli's Declaration of War, Yann Samuell's The War of the Buttons and Julie Delpy's new comedy The Skylab.

Bon Festival!
