Eurochannel’s Short Films Tour and the Alliance Francaise of NW CT is once again co-sponsoring with the Southbury Film Commission the seventh edition, “My Dear Family” featuring this year’s theme: the European family.
The Eurochannel Short Films Tour has been a successful Eurochannel trademark for the last seven years. A unique event, the tour invites viewers to follow talented directors on an exciting exploration of Europe through short films: with the directors as guides, viewers discover fascinating cultures through the eyes of a filmmaker. Almost every European country and region is represented in this edition of the Eurochannel Short Films Tour – each of whose film is broadcast in its original language and subtitled in English – which is an example of the program’s creativity and dynamism. Brief discussions will be held between films to give time to the audience to give their reaction and ask questions.
Today’s six shorts will be from Program 3: “Away We Go” and represent the countries listed below:
PROGRAM 3: “AWAY WE GO”
FRANCE (ILE-DE-FRANCE) “Bamako Saint-Afrique” – Drama, Comedy 12 minutes
