New York, April 23, 2024 <\/strong>\u2013 This summer, cinephiles won\u2019t need to go further than their local park to experience the excitement and drama of sports with a French flair, thanks to Films on the Green, Villa Albertine\u2019s free outdoor French film festival. This year\u2019s selection of films is curated around the theme \u2018Sports in Film,\u2019 and kicks off Friday, May 31, with a screening of Gilles Lellouche\u2019s <\/strong>Sink or Swim<\/em><\/strong> in Central Park.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running through Friday September 6, Films on the Green will show 11 English-subtitled features in eight Manhattan and Brooklyn parks. Screenings begin at sundown.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis summer, sports will be a source of international connection, where different cultures come together to celebrate human achievement.

From intimate portraits of real-life legends\u2014Jacques Cousteau, Salif Ke\u00efta Traor\u00e9, Marinette Pichon\u2014to thrilling stories of kidnap, romance, and stardom, and even a US premiere (Les Cinq Tulipes Rouges<\/em>) the lineup proves that sports films, a stereotypically American genre, are very much alive and thriving in French cinema. Find the full schedule below, and read more about each film, including the cast and partners, here<\/a>.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Films on the Green started over 15 years ago as a small film series in local New York City community gardens.

This summer the festival will take place in five American cities, a new record <\/strong>and a testament to the ongoing enthusiasm for diverse and accessible outdoor film experiences.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n
