MY FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL is an innovative concept to help discover young French creation and allow Internet users across the globe to share their love of French cinema. For its second edition, the festival returns with even more foreign languages, new partner platforms and launch previews at the four corners of the world. It is organized by Unifrance and Allocine.

WHEN? 

It's from January 12 to February 1st, 2012.

THE PRINCIPLES:

Ten feature films and ten shorts by young French creators are in competition. Internet users are invited to score all the films and leave their comments on the website. The selection equally includes a film out-of-competition, a heritage film, as well as one French Canadian short and one feature.

HOW?

The festival is available in 14 languages. The Internet website and the films (available via video-on-demand) are accessible in Arabic, English, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Lithuanian, Portuguese, Polish, Russian and Spanish. 

As soon as the website of MyFrenchFilmFestival.com opens its doors, you'll be able to watch exclusive interviews with the directors and actors free of charge.
