'Vive le cinéma!': Scotland and France's historic ties championed as festival returns

A SCOTTISH-BORN French film festival is set to strengthen the countries’ historic ties and champion cultural connection in the wake of Brexit.

The French Film Festival - which is the UK’s only francophone film festival - will celebrate its 30th anniversary with screenings taking place across the country. 

Thirty-five cinemas across the UK will screen a range of contemporary and classic French cinema throughout November and December, with a special focus on championing female creators. Special guests Charlotte Gainsbourg and Blaindine Lenoir are set to attend.
