We are thrilled to launch Cin\u00e9School, a new film program for young audience produced by Villa Albertine, in partnership with the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and the FACE Foundation. It aims to broaden the availability of French and francophone cinema for young audiences in schools and students across the US.<\/p>\n\n
With free screenings adapted for various age groups\u2014from elementary to high school\u2014Cin\u00e9School seeks to offer young people of all backgrounds the opportunity to see curated French-language content and to become a dynamic resource for French speakers and French learners in the US.<\/p>\n\n
Whether they study French as part of a dual-language program, learn French as a foreign language, or pursue French as their heritage language, Cin\u00e9School aims to provide free, diverse cultural content to students.<\/p>\n\n
Interactive talks on FlipGrid where children get a chance to engage with film professionals will offer opportunities to practice French language skills and learn more about cinema. The program is designed to engage children and teens in ways that complement and enhance their French-language education in the US.<\/p>\n\n
