Boise French Film Festival
About this Event
View mapThe Boise French Film Festival is back for year two! The Boise State French Club is delighted to host BFFF with the help of French and film students.
Immerse yourself in the language and step through a cinematic portal to new continents. Hosted on the Boise State campus, this three-week festival offers more than just movies. Each screening features a faculty guest speaker from a variety of disciplines, followed by an optional community discussion. Thanks to a generous grant from the Villa Albertine Foundation, our lineup has evolved. This year, the BFFF will screen six critically acclaimed films, ranging from iconic New Wave classics to contemporary action. There is truly something for everyone.
All screenings are FREE and open to the public.
Films will be shown in their original language with English subtitles.
PARKING is free in the Lincoln Garage. Use the pay kiosk and select "French Film Festival" after entering your license plate number.
