The French Film Festival UK’s online programme, fff@home starts this weekend.
The nine days of online screenings are organised in collaboration with INDEE+ and will run from Friday 3 to Sunday 12 December. The programme includes several UK premieres and a classic of the New Wave for audiences to watch on laptops, computers and TVs. The films featured are only available as part of the Festival on fff@home and have a window to watch for 48 hours.
One of the highlights is the online Festival opening film, Yamina Benguigui’s feminist drama, Sisters. Starring Isabelle Adjani, it is about three generations of French Algerian women, exploring the bonds of family which seem forever strained.
Other highlights include the feel-good Fly Me Away by Christophe Barratier, the hilarious French Tech from Bruno Podalydès who directs and stars alongside his brother Denis; family comedy The Speech by Laurent Tirard; a Sixties-set relationship drama, My Father’s Stories and an intriguing fable, Snowglobes, by Yannick Ruault.
