The films will be screened in their original form, with Vietnamese and French subtitles, providing a rich and accessible cinematic experience for all audiences.

This year marks the 15th year that the Francophone Film Festival has been held in Vietnam. The event is an important milestone demonstrating the commitment of Vietnam and the member countries of the International Organisation of the Francophone (OIF) in honouring the French language as well as cultural and linguistic diversity.

The Francophone Film Festival is one of many typical activities in the series of events to celebrate the International Francophone Day on March 20 every year, organised with close coordination between GADIF (Group of Francophone Embassies, Delegations and Institutions), the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Vietnam, and many other cultural partners in the commitment to promoting French cinema and the French language.

Every year, the Francophone Film Festival attracts a large audience of cinema enthusiasts.

This year's event once again brings exciting discoveries and moments of sharing through the art of cinema and the values ​​of the Francophone community.

Free tickets will be available at the National Cinema Centre from 30 minutes before the screening.
