  • 10/24 French Film Festival

    Dear UConn Community,

     

    The French section of the LCL Department would like to invite you to our annual French Film Festival! This year’s theme is “French Cinema is Making a Splash”. Each film of our three-night festival includes an element of water.

     

    Tonight's movie: Le Grand Bain

     

    Seven men of various generations who’ve seen better days find new purpose in life by devoting themselves to their synchronized swimming team. In anticipation of the world championships in Norway, they recruit the help of two ex-champion coaches: Delphine, an alcoholic, and Amanda, a paraplegic athlete.

     

    All are welcome, even if you don’t speak French! All films will be subtitled, so feel free to bring your friends, family, roommates, and anyone who would like to enjoy three FREE evenings of French films and FOOD!

     

    This fantastique cinematic experience will include crêpes, snacks, and beverages. But wait, there’s more! We will also have games, discussions, and prizes!

     

    We hope to see you for our last movie in the School of Nursing (STRS)!

     

    Merci beaucoup!
