?? This week's Big Story:?French cinema & the city, Unifrance's annual RDV in NYC gears up for a star-studded edition
What's going on? ??
Unifrance is gearing up for its 28th edition of the annual Rendez-Vous with French Cinema in New York City. With a bevy of internationally-acclaimed French directors, actors, sellers, and producers descending upon the concrete jungle, it's the perfect opportunity for American audiences to discover the dynamism of French cinema free of the Hollywood glitz, glam, and red carpet brouhaha.?
Why should you care? ??
While Hollywood is widely looked at as the #1 cinema industry location across the Atlantic, New York City is just as rich in its film culture, with a large number of cinema buffs and internationally-known directors having set up shop in the Big Apple. This year's event allows American audiences to discover some of the best French films from the past year, including several César-nominated titles. If all goes according to plan, American viewers will leave with a renewed interest in France's cinema offering.?
What can you expect? ??
Expect a star-studded event, with some of France's top stars, directors, and industry decision-makers. Aside from being able to discover the diverse slate of Francophone films, attendees will also be able to take part in a variety of discussions and on-stage dialogues, featuring a career retrospective with Virginie Efira and much more.
