Sixteen films from the French-speaking world by veteran European (Resnais, Chéreau, Buñuel, Oliviera) and francophone filmmakers from Quebec (Binamé) and Africa (Sissako). In addition to a well-established filmmaker of North African descent (Rachid Bouchareb), the festival includes a new series entitled Vivre Ensemble (Living Together), five films by emerging filmmakers who look at contemporary French society in all of its aspects, with special emphasis on its multiculturalism.

The Tuesday experimental film evening features filmmaker Philip Cote in person. Eleven films are MILWAUKEE PREMIERES. Twelve of the sixteen films are free screenings. All films are in French w/English Subtitles. Talkbacks following certain screenings.
