Titled “Mothers, Sisters, Daughters: Family & Diversity in New French & Francophone Film,” this year’s Williams French Film Festival features recent films from France and Belgium that focus on a diverse spectrum of women in the French-speaking world. This festival is made possible with generous funding from the Williams Class of 1960 Scholars Program, and with assistance and support from the Department of Romance Languages, and the Center for Global Languages, Literatures, and Cultures. All films are in French with English subtitles, and are free and open to the public. The films will be introduced by French Professors Sophie Saint-Just and Brian Martin.
