Season

Please note : this season finished in Dec 2022

The French Film Festival celebrates its 30th anniversary this year with a series of French language films this December.

This year, we are proud to be screening previews of three highly-anticipated films: Saint Omer from Alice Diop, who will be exhibiting her first foray outside the documentary genre she is most known for. Then we'll be screening More Than Ever starring Vicky Krieps as a woman with a rare lung disease alongside the late Gaspard Ulliel in his final role. And finally we have the hotly-anticipated Rodeo in which a young misfit gets herself involve in the dark world of urban motorbike races.

A young novelist confronts personal trauma as she observes the trial of a woman accused of infanticide. Loosely inspired by a real court case where a mother abandoned her baby to the rising tides on a beach, Saint Omer is a finely observed drama which stylishly probes the unspeakable.
