Organized by the Franco-American Cultural Fund, the festival will host its 27th edition at the Directors Guild of America Theater on Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood.
Rap-Veber said “the American French Film Festival is a wonderful symbol to embody the Franco-American friendship and a crucial moment and spotlight to promote French cinema and all its talented creators.” A number of movies have also been picked up for U.S. distribution following their premieres at the L.A.-based festival, notably Michael Hazanavicius’ “Final Cut” , “A Family for 1640 Days” and “The Super 8 Years” . Every year, the American French Film Festival brings together French stars and filmmakers who are on the ground to present their movies and participate in panel discussions, among other activities. Previous guests include Marion Cotillard and Omar Sy.
Anouchka van Riel, the festival’s deputy director, said the American French Film Festival “continues to anchor all that is French cinema and TV for the U.S. film industry and moviegoers in a swath of programs that instill an appetite for French filmmaking.”
