15th Frankofon Film Days

The Journées du Film Francophone are a unique opportunity to discover the best of recent Francophone films in Hungary. For this 15th edition, the French Institute and their partners, have selected an eclectic range of 23 films from 8 countries (Belgium, Canada, France, Greece, Hungary, Morocco, Romania, Switzerland), many of which have won awards at major international festivals. Several highlights of the festival will pay tribute to women artists, including the opening night at Uránia with the film Sarah Bernhardt, La Divine, by Guillaume Nicloux.
