Focus on French Cinema 2010, the 6th annual festival of French and francophone film was held the weekend of April 9-11, 2010 at the Performing Art Center at Purchase College, NY.
Presented by the Alliance Française of Greenwich, CT and in partnership with Purchase College, NY, the weekend of 12 French language films from France, Belgium, Quebec and Africa was a real succes. Close to four thousand cinephales - with the strongest proportion of Americans yet seen - supporeted Focus on French Cinema this year. Given the current economic climate, the turnout was beyond our expectations for the weekend of chilling thrillers, side-splitting comedies and vivid dramas.
