Three French films in competition at the Venice Film Festival

François Ozon, Wim Wenders, and Stéphane Brizé will be flying the flag for France at the upcoming Venice Film Festival, which opens its doors on August 31. A total of 12 French feature films (excluding French cinema classics and minority-French productions) and 3 French shorts will be screened during the world's longest-standing film festival until September 10.

Three French films (including majority-French productions) will follow in the footsteps of Courted, which featured in the Official Competition at Venice at the 2015 Venice Film Festival and picked up the Golden Lion Award.

A large delegation of French artists will travel to the Italian city to present their films:
