Join us for the 29th Annual Festival of Films in French which showcases stories of resistance, artistic expression, justice, and freedom.<\/p>\n

The Festival of Films in French returns this February with an array of contemporary and classic fiction, animation and documentary films that attend to their very form and explore notions of care, restoration and reparations, whether physical, familial, historical, environmental or symbolic. Filmed by familiar and new directors, the stories travel from Paris to Benin or the Niger Delta, Quebec to Provence, Haiti to the Congo\/DRC, and are set in Mauritius, Tunisia, Iraq, France and California.<\/p>\n

Come in from the cold for six days of thought-provoking films, and travel across space and time to witness stories of resilience, freedom, creativity and friendship.<\/p>\n

Check out the festival\u2019s full schedule at uwm.edu\/french-film-festival\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n
